The BEB has exposed a trader for fuel fraud
Detectives from the Territorial Directorate of the State Bureau of Investigations in the Kyiv region, in collaboration with the police, have completed a pre-trial investigation and filed an indictment against the head of a fuel trading company.
The woman organized large-scale financial fraud that allowed the company to evade taxes totaling nearly 17 million hryvnias.
Law enforcement officials established that a former member of the Kyiv Region District Council, who is currently a practicing attorney and headed a company engaged in the wholesale trade of fuel and lubricants, was involved in the illegal activities.
For several years, the organizer of the scheme deliberately falsified the company’s official financial reports to minimize its tax liabilities to the state.
“The investigation established that the woman had been preparing fictitious documents for the purchase of petroleum products for several years. The documents listed fuel volumes that trucks were physically incapable of transporting,” the agency’s statement reads.
These manipulations allowed management to artificially inflate the company’s expenses, creating the appearance of low profitability.
