Court proceedings commence
Prosecutors have referred an indictment to a court in Khmelnytskyi Oblast against an official of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine. He is suspected of violations during the procurement of protective equipment that did not meet established standards.
Details of the 2022 incident
According to the investigation, in 2022, 1,730 sets of radiological, chemical, and biological protective equipment were purchased. The official who headed the procurement committee did not initiate a quality check of the goods, despite the absence of documents confirming the product's compliance with standards.
State financial losses
According to the investigation, the procurement caused the state losses exceeding 14 million hryvnia. To secure future reimbursement of funds, a lien was placed on the defendant's assets, valued at 2.3 million hryvnia.
The determination of the official's guilt now rests with the court.
