Sagaidak notified of suspicion of concealing assets worth UAH 12.7 million

New charges against Derzhpratsia head

The Ivano-Frankivsk Regional Prosecutor's Office has notified 41-year-old Bogdan Sagaidak, who held the position of head of the South-Western Interregional Directorate of the State Labour Service, of suspicion. The man had previously been detained on suspicion of bribery, but the investigation uncovered new violations on his part.

What was concealed in the declaration

According to the investigation results, in the 2024 document, the official intentionally omitted his actual place of residence and did not list his family members. Furthermore, the report lacks data on real estate used by him and his close relatives.

Specifically, Sagaidak failed to declare:

• two apartments in the city of Ternopil with a total value of UAH 5.1 million;
• a workshop and a garage registered in the name of his cohabitant;
• a car, which is also owned by his cohabitant.

It was established that the aforementioned apartments were rented out, and the income obtained from this went directly into the official's pockets.

Legal qualification and case status

Bogdan Sagaidak's actions have been qualified under Part 2 of Article 366-2 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, that is, as the intentional provision of knowingly false information in a declaration. The total amount of undeclared assets exceeds UAH 12.7 million.

It is worth noting that as early as October 2024, an indictment in a bribery case involving four individuals was sent to court. Based on a motion by prosecutors, Bogdan Sagaidak was suspended from his position.
