Officials of a state enterprise will be tried for causing 8,1 million UAH in damages during the purchase of tractors
More than 8,1 million UAH in damages were caused to the state enterprise during the purchase of 25 tractors. Officials rejected a cheaper tender offer and selected a supplier who quoted a higher price. Pretrial investigation in the proceedings was carried out by detectives of the Main Detectors Unit of the BEB.
The investigation established that in November 2023 – February 2024 the director of the procurement department and the company’s executive director acted in prior collusion.
During the open tender they rejected the bids of one participant that had a lower price. A different company with higher price proposals was declared the winner for three lots.
As a result, the state enterprise purchased 25 tractors from that supplier. Thus the enterprise suffered material damage totaling more than 8,1 million UAH.
The officials’ actions were qualified under part 2 of article 28 and part 2 of article 364 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine — abuse of official position committed by prior collusion of a group of persons. The indictment has been sent to court.
Procedural supervision — Office of the Prosecutor General. Operational support was provided by officers of the Main Department for Countering Systemic Threats to State Governance of the SBU.
