An agreement with former Interior Ministry secretary Takhtai was approved
The High Anti-Corruption Court approved a plea agreement accepted by former Interior Ministry state secretary Oleksii Takhtai. The agreement itself is classified. Under its terms, the ex-official will reimburse 16 million UAH in damages. He was given a suspended sentence of 8 years without confiscation and released on probation for 2 years.
Meanwhile, the rest of the case proceeded to trial, involving: former head of the state institution “Center for Servicing Units” of the Interior Ministry Oleksandr Mohyla, director of LLC “Novitnie Obladnannia” Svitlana Tryhub, and five other defendants.
According to the prosecution, in 2020 Takhtai and Mohyla ensured the victory of one company in the procurement procedure for video surveillance and access control equipment installed in Interior Ministry buildings. Although the price of the goods was significantly inflated, the state institution transferred funds for them, which ultimately resulted in 16 million UAH in damages.
For this, the entrepreneur provided Takhtai with use of 4 premium-class cars.
