The court will consider the case of the seizure of UAH 1.3 million of the funds of the port “Pivdennyi”

The case regarding the seizure of over UAH 1.3 million by Pivdennyi port officials was referred to the court.

In April-August 2020, Pivdennyi port officials illegally seized the funds of the state-owned enterprise. We are talking about more than UAH 1.3 million, the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office reports.

The scheme was organized by the acting director of SE “MTP Pivdennyi”, chief accountant and deputy director of the port for legal and property issues (the positions are indicated at the time of the crime).

According to the investigation, in at. the director, by prior collusion, provided himself with excess accrual and further payment of wages in excess of the limits established by law.

“From April to October 2020, the monthly salary of managers, members of executive bodies, as well as the remuneration of members of supervisory boards of economic entities of the state sector of the economy was limited to 47,230 hryvnias. Despite this, during the specified period, the official illegally ensured the accrual and subsequent payment to himself of more than UAH 1.3 million,” the SAP said.

As previously reported by USM, in 2022 NABU notified the first deputy head of the Pivdennyi port and ten other persons (Roman Inde, Oleg Traidakal, Mykyta Zherebtsov, Olga Sharapova, etc.) of suspicion of causing damage to the Pivdennyi port in the amount of UAH 47 million.
