Corruption in Kyiv City State Administration: Officials and Territorial Defence leadership steal millions

Corruption in KCSA: Officials and TD leadership steal millions in UAV procurement

Allegations of embezzlement: Staff of the Kyiv City State Administration (KCSA) and the leadership of one of the Territorial Defence (TD) brigades are suspected of embezzling funds allocated for the procurement of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). As a result of their actions, state funds were stolen and distributed among the participants of the corrupt scheme.

Fraud with state funds

Funds for procurement: The military unit received 615 million hryvnia for the purchase of UAVs and other equipment. However, instead of using these funds for their intended purpose, they were cashed out through fictitious companies created to conduct illegal transactions.

Inflated prices: According to the investigation, the supply contract was signed with inflated prices, which also contributed to increasing the corrupt income of the scheme's participants.

Fictitious companies for fund extraction

Shell companies: The photos presented in the investigation materials show a list of fictitious companies through which the cashed-out funds passed. These companies were used to hide the traces of embezzlement and conceal the actual recipients of the funds.
