The High Anti-Corruption Court agreed with the position of the SAPO prosecutor and granted two claims for recognition of assets worth more than UAH 8.5 million as unjustified by the head of a department and the chief state inspector of the Odesa Customs, as well as their son, the deputy head of a district council in Kyiv region.
According to the press service of the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office, the court also agreed to recover these funds to the state.
The National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption and prosecutors found out that in 2021, customs officials acquired an apartment in Odesa with an area of 103.8 square meters, and their son acquired an apartment in the capital with an area of 105.5 square meters and a Toyota RAV4 Plug-In Hybrid, made in 2018.
At the same time, the ownership of these assets is registered in the name of their close relative, born in 1937.
During the analysis of the property status and income of these persons, it was found that the mentioned assets could not have been purchased at the expense of the legal income of either the spouses of the customs officers, the deputy head of the district council, or their close relatives.
After the monitoring of the lifestyle of the above-mentioned subjects began, they immediately sold the assets.
Meanwhile, the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office, based on materials from the State Bureau of Investigation, filed a lawsuit with the High Anti-Corruption Court to declare unjustified the assets of one of the heads of the territorial center for recruitment and social support in Odesa region, totaling more than UAH 1.9 million. The official's family members acquired two Toyota C-HR and Toyota C-HR Hybrid cars worth UAH 600 thousand and UAH 1.3 million, respectively. At the same time, the official was unable to confirm the legitimacy of the sources of income or savings that could allow such an acquisition.
