🔒 Investigators from the State Bureau of Investigations (DBR) found correspondence on the phone of the acting director of the state enterprise “Special Construction Administration of the SBU” about fictitious employment of men at the enterprise, likely for money — to obtain deferrals from mobilization (Case No.42026000000000670).
The acting director was messaging with three people about their “formal employment, likely for monetary compensation.” After registration, the enterprise sent letters to the territorial recruitment and social support center of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with lists of employees to be deferred from mobilization. According to the DBR, a records clerk helped with this.
Initially the DBR investigators were probing a case about the illegal sale of scrap metal by the leadership of this SBU special enterprise, and only during a search and review of the director’s phone contents did they find evidence of possible fictitious deferments from mobilization.
Since March 2026 the state enterprise “Special Construction Administration of the SBU” has been in the process of liquidation. Buildings on the enterprise’s balance sheet are currently being dismantled because residential buildings are planned to be built on their site near the Dnipro in Kyiv. After dismantling, employees of the state enterprise sold the scrap metal to a representative of the company “Fishtorg.” Starting in May, first the chief mechanic and then the acting director of the state enterprise agreed with the businessman that he would record a lower weight on the paperwork at weighing, and pay the difference in cash.
Soon the officials began handing over compressor drums for 20–50 thousand hryvnias. By that time the representative of “Fishtorg” was already cooperating with law enforcement and documenting arrangements with the leadership. In July the acting director and the chief mechanic of the enterprise were detained while handing over money. Both were notified of suspicions of bribery. The Pechersk District Court set bail for the officials at 183 thousand hryvnias each, and they were released on bail.
The Special Construction Administration of the SBU has legally existed since 2002 and is fully subordinated to the SBU. Formally the enterprise was created to build housing for SBU employees and to service its facilities.
