⚠️ Report of rulings: Ministry of Defense — fictitious operations with fiber-optic UAVs, food purchases for 54,06 billion UAH, Ukrzaliznytsia — illegal allocation of railcars
To activate the investigation and procedural oversight, the NGO “NON-STOP UKRAINE” filed complaints about the failure to enter information into the Unified Register of Pre-Trial Investigations (URPTI) regarding reports of criminal schemes related to the covering-up of gas deals, financial conversion, and the illegal transfer of funds abroad.
▪️ Defense contract for fiber-optic UAVs through fictitious operations
It was established that former Minister of Defense of Ukraine #Федоров Mykhailo, former Ministers of Defense #Шмигаль Denys and #Умєров Rustem, the head of the Anti-Corruption Council at the Ministry of Defense #Гудименко Yuriy, former director of the state enterprise “AOZ” #Жумаділов Arsen, and the founder and ultimate beneficiary of LLC “Vyrij Industry” #Бабенко Oleksii, by involving a network of LLCs under their control, created a criminal group to sabotage the state contract for the manufacture and delivery to the Security and Defense Forces of unmanned systems using fiber-optic communication.
The scheme consisted of committing unlawful activities through formal suppliers to record non-goods transactions, channeling funds into the shadow economy through chains of transit companies, and then legalizing them.
The Halytskyi District Court of Lviv, by ruling in case No. 461/5617/26, obliged the authorized officers of the Criminal Investigation Department of the Main Directorate of the National Police in Lviv region to enter the relevant information into the URPTI.
▪️ Defense procurements for 54 billion UAH: inflated prices and a limited circle of suppliers
In the scheme to embezzle budget funds were implicated former Minister of Defense Mykhailo #Федоров, his former first deputy Oleksii Vyskub, former Director of the Procurement Department of the Ministry of Defense Serhii Kulyas, and former director of the state enterprise “#АОЗ” Arsen #Жумаділов. During the purchase of food products for 54,06 billion UAH, only 9 out of 20 companies were allowed to participate, among them LLC “TRADE GRANIT INVEST”, LLC “TOWNSITE PRODUCT” and LLC “ADELN”.
The expected cost of a food kit was set at 171,48 UAH versus about 128 UAH in comparable Prozorro procurements. It is worth noting the purchase of diesel fuel at about 78,66 UAH/liter compared to a market price of 54–57 UAH/liter. The estimated overpricing is from 880 million to more than 1 billion UAH.
The Ternopil City and District Court of Ternopil region, by ruling in case No. 607/16016/26, obliged the authorized officers of the Criminal Investigation Department of the Main Directorate of the National Police in Ternopil region to enter the relevant information into the URPTI.
▪️ Ukrzaliznytsia: illegal allocation of railcars and privileges for certain companies
It was established that the Minister for Communities and Territories Development of Ukraine #Калашник M.V., the chairman of the board of JSC “#Укрзалізниця” #Перцовський O.S., and the director of the branch “Center for Transport Logistics” #Трибіс I.M. formed an organized criminal group to illegally allocate railcar resources, appropriate the company’s funds, and provide certain companies with advantages bypassing the results of electronic auctions and contractual terms.
The scheme envisaged granting LLC “#ГРЕЙНСВАРД” access to railcars despite failing to meet declared transport volumes, readmitting it to long-term auctions for the 2026 season of the year, and allocating to certain companies railcars beyond the volumes determined by auction results. Meanwhile other market participants received resources only within the limits of won auctions and contractual obligations.
The Dnipro District Court of Kyiv, by ruling in case No. 755/16103/26, obliged the authorized officers of the Dnipro District Prosecutor’s Office to enter the relevant information into the URPTI.
