In the Vinnytsia region, the State Bureau of Investigation detained the head of the Tulchin district prosecutor’s office and the deputy chairman of the Tulchin district state administration for taking bribes. The DBR press service reported this today, February 8.
“The State Bureau of Investigation detained the head of one of the district prosecutor’s offices of the Vinnytsia Regional Prosecutor’s Office and his accomplice – the deputy head of the state administration of the same region. They demanded and received a bribe from the director of one of the state-owned enterprises for the fact that they will not create obstacles to the implementation of economic activities and the return of seized assets and the closure of criminal proceedings,” the statement said.
It was noted that the head of the prosecutor’s office, who influences the pre-trial investigation body and the prosecutors subordinate to it, decided to earn extra money from the powers granted to him by the state.
“To take secrecy measures and avoid exposure, the prosecutor involved his partner, the deputy chairman of the district state administration, in extortion, who presented a request to the businessman for the transfer of 4 thousand US dollars,” the DBI reported.
The money was transferred in two stages: 2 thousand US dollars in advance and another 2 thousand US dollars after the prosecutor developed the grounds for closing the proceedings and reached an agreement with the local investigative judges to cancel the -confiscation of property seized in criminal proceedings.
“The DBI employees detained the defendant and his accomplice after receiving the last part in the amount of 2 thousand US dollars during the distribution of the bribe. Immediate searches were conducted at the places of work and residence of the detainees, and others more priority investigative actions to obtain all the evidence of the crime committed,” added the DBI. .
A message is being prepared to detainees about suspicion and a petition to the court for their custody.
Remind us that an official of the Kiev Improvement Committee was exposed, who received 100 thousand Hryvnias as a bribe for a trade permit.
