According to the investigation, they forged documents on behalf of the military unit, in particular, contracts, invoices and letters of inquiry allegedly for the purchase of quadcopters. On the basis of these "documents", more than 15. 6 million UAH were transferred from the accounts of four communities, but the military did not see the equipment. The participants of the scheme appropriated and legalized the proceeds through financial transactions.
Eight participants of the scheme, depending on what was committed, were charged with misappropriation and embezzlement of other people's property, money laundering, official falsification and forgery of documents (Part 5 of Article 191, Part 2 of Article 209, Part 1, 2 of Article 366 and Part 3, 4 of Article 358 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).
Prosecutors of the Specialized Prosecutor's Office in the field of defense of the Central region appealed to the court with a request to choose a preventive measure for them. If the guilt of those involved is proven, the suspects face imprisonment for a term of seven to 12 years with deprivation of the right to hold certain positions or engage in certain activities for a period of up to three years and confiscation of property.
