The defendant deliberately delayed the process of concluding official contracts for the performance of economic work, and received payment from businessmen in cash.

The SBU and the State Bureau of Investigation detained in Lvov the head of the Western Interregional Department for the Enforcement of Criminal Sentences of the Ministry of Justice, which imposed a “tribute” on businessmen. The SBU press service reported this on Monday, September 23.

The official demanded bribes from businessmen in exchange for unhindered business activities in correctional institutions in the western region of Ukraine.

In particular, it is documented that the defendant established a scheme of corruption in a company engaged in wood processing in the territory of one of the correctional colonies.

The defendant deliberately delayed the process of concluding official contracts for the performance of economic work, and received payment from businessmen in cash.

As production materials testify, he really “taxes” every cubic meter of wood.

Law enforcement officials gradually documented the criminal activities of the defendant and arrested him “in the act” when he received a new “tranche” of illegal benefits of more than 2 thousand euros.

The investigation is currently underway. The penalty of the incriminated article of the Criminal Code provides a penalty of up to 12 years in prison with confiscation of property.

We remind you that the acting head of the Fastov interdistrict medical and social expert commission was informed about the suspicion of bribery.

Earlier in Kyiv, the vice-rector of one of the private universities was detained while accepting $2,000 from an applicant for admission to the educational institution.
