The case against the ex-chairman of the board of the gas distribution network operator, who unreasonably calculated a five million hryvnia premium, was sent to court. This is reported by the Office of the Prosecutor General, as well as the Bureau of Economic Security.
"The management of the gas distribution company in Bukovina was paid more than UAH 11.2 million of unreasonable premiums at the expense of the enterprise. Of these, the former chairman of the board counted UAH 5 million personally," the BEB said.
Under the procedural guidance of the prosecutors of the Prosecutor General's Office, a case was sent to the court against the former chairman of the board of the gas distribution network operator in the seizure of funds on an especially large scale.
It is established that in May 2023, the then chairman of the board issued an unreasonable order to award bonuses to the company's management. On the basis of this order, illegal payments were made throughout the year.
The unreasonableness of the bonus is confirmed by the conclusion of the State Audit Service of Ukraine, and the amount of damage is confirmed by the economic expertise.
The pre-trial investigation was carried out by detectives of the Bureau of Economic Security of Ukraine with the operational support of the Security Service of Ukraine.
"The enterprise provides gas distribution in Chernivtsi region. Previously, it was under the control of a sanctioned oligarch, now the company is managed by the state," the prosecutor's office said.
