A network of illegal fuel depots and mobile gas stations: a large-scale scheme for selling counterfeit fuel has been dismantled
In the Kyiv region, 7 members of an organized criminal group who mass-produced and sold counterfeit gasoline will be prosecuted. The perpetrators operated an entire network of clandestine production sites, stationary and mobile filling stations.
To turn cheap feedstock into the popular A-95 grade gasoline, they added special chemical additives and dyes. The liquid took on the desired color, and buyers were confident they were fueling their vehicles with a quality product from well-known domestic brands.
The counterfeit product was sold through 10 stationary gas stations and directly from modified vehicles. Detectives from the State Bureau of Economic Security in Kyiv region discovered 4 illegal oil depots in Bila Tserkva and Fastiv districts.
Overall, during investigative actions, 100 thousand liters of hazardous fuel worth more than 7 million hryvnias were seized.
