Law enforcement officers informed 8 people about the suspicion of stealing money from Ukrnafta. The company's losses amounted to UAH 13.3 billion.
During the pre-trial investigation, it was found out that in 2015 Ukrnafta entered into sale and purchase agreements with a number of LLCs. They were recognized as the winners at oil auctions.
Details of the case
After that, the company supplied raw materials in the amount of UAH 10.7 billion, although no payment was received from customers.
Despite this, the oil was delivered and processed at the Kremenchug refinery. Manufactured petroleum products were sold at gas stations throughout the country.
Who is suspected:
- former head of the board of PJSC “Ukrnafta”;
- ex-deputy head of the department for sale of oil, gas and oil and gas products of PJSC “Ukrnafta”;
- former head of the department for control over the accounting and supply of oil and petroleum products of PJSC “Ukrnafta”;
- former directors of 5 commercial enterprises.
In addition, in July 2015, Ukrnafta employees signed 52 contracts for the supply of petroleum products. The amount of transactions reached UAH 2.5 billion.
The money was transferred, but Ukrnafta signed additional agreements to postpone the delivery of petroleum products until the end of 2018. As a result, the advance payment was transferred to the accounts of non-resident enterprises.
If the suspects are found guilty, they face imprisonment for a term of 7 to 12 years.
