В Украине обнаружили $450 тысяч у руководителя Николаевской областной МСЭК, что указывает на наличие коррупционных схем.

The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) has exposed the head of the regional medical and social expertise center of the Mykolaiv regional council involved in corrupt schemes for draft evaders. Almost half a million dollars were found with the official, and her son possessed a Russian passport. This was reported by the SBU press service.

During the searches, more than 450 thousand dollars and a collection of jewelry were discovered at the suspect's addresses, which she had hidden in various locations.

The majority of the seized money and valuables were found in her son's house - a medical university intern, who was also found to have a Russian passport. It is reported that the official's son obtained citizenship of the aggressor country at the former consulate of the Russian Federation in Odesa before the onset of full-scale war.

Additionally, to conceal her illegal income, the woman registered three undeclared apartments in her son's name.

According to the investigation, from 2015 to 2023, the head of the Medical and Social Expertise Commission declared only official income totaling just over 2 million UAH. Furthermore, it has been established that in 2023 she arranged for herself and her son to receive a second group disability status to obtain additional benefits and social payments from the state. Currently, the issue of notifying the official of suspicion is being addressed.

The investigation is ongoing.
