In Kherson, investigators served a notice of suspicion to the head of the Regional Center for Emergency Medical Care and Disaster Medicine Galina Saldan and the director of the company "Spicard Dinara Blazhko. According to the investigation, the women twice in a year ran a scheme to purchase uniforms for ambulance crews.

This became known from court rulings.
