Law enforcement officers from the Bureau of Economic Security of Ukraine (BEB) carried out the largest seizure of cash funds in the entire history of the structural unit. In total, over UAH 630m was confiscated in various foreign and national currencies. This was announced by BEB head Oleksandr Tsyvynskyi.
Jointly with the Office of the Prosecutor General, detectives uncovered a large-scale financial scheme through which tens of billions of hryvnias were diverted from the legal economic turnover annually. Criminal proceedings were opened on the grounds of the legalisation (laundering) of proceeds obtained by criminal means.
The investigation established that the network of illegal currency exchange points operated under a complex concealment system. To store large volumes of cash, the perpetrators used hidden storage facilities, caches, and even tunnels. All activities of the underground exchange points were coordinated from a central control point.
During the investigation, a technical element was discovered that allowed blocking access to black financial accounting upon a specific signal. This system was designed to complicate the detection of illegal operations and hide evidence from the investigation.
BEB detectives simultaneously conducted 30 searches at premises linked to illegal activities. During these operations, law enforcement officers seized cash, mobile phones, computer equipment, and black accounting documentation.
«Готівка, телефони, техніка, чорнова бухгалтерія — лише те, що видно в кадрі. За цим — місяці аналітики, встановлення зв’язків і роботи детективів» (Cash, phones, equipment, black accounting — that is only what is visible on camera. Behind this are months of analytics, establishing connections, and detective work), Oleksandr Tsyvynskyi emphasised.
He also added that, given limited resources, the priority for BEB is countering schemes that pose the greatest risks to the state budget.
The pre-trial investigation in this case is ongoing.
