For almost a year she was supplying locals with counterfeit fuel: illegal diesel sales exposed in Chernivtsi region
At one of the gas stations in the settlement of Putyla, counterfeit diesel was being sold as high-quality fuel. Detectives of the Territorial Department of the State Bureau of Economic Security in Chernivtsi region completed the pretrial investigation and sent the indictment to court.
It was established that from July 2025 to May 2026 the defendant regularly purchased diesel fuel of dubious origin at a price substantially below market value. The blend was stored in the gas station’s tanks and then dispensed to drivers through the fuel dispenser.
The results of forensic examinations confirmed that the diesel samples taken did not meet the requirements of state quality standards.
Based on the collected evidence, the defendant was notified of suspicion under part 1 of article 204 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (illegal purchase for the purpose of sale, storage and sale of illegally manufactured fuel).
The pretrial investigation is now officially complete, and the case materials together with the indictment have been forwarded to the court for consideration.
