The Security Service continues to systematically prosecute Russian henchmen who are involved in financing Russian armed aggression against Ukraine.

In the course of investigative and operational actions in the Zhytomyr region, the crimes of the management of the local mining company, which “earned” for Volodymyr Saldo, the Gauleiter of the seized part of the Kherson region, were exposed.

It was his family that was the ultimate beneficiary of this enterprise, which was engaged in mining, processing and selling granite on an industrial scale.

Part of the profits received was directed to support the needs of the occupation authorities in the temporarily occupied part of the south of Ukraine.

In September of last year, according to the SBU materials, the assets of a commercial structure were seized for cooperation with henchmen of the aggressor country.

In addition, during the pre-trial investigation, the schemes used by the company’s leaders to withdraw money into the shadows and their further use in the interests of the enemy were exposed.

In order to implement the devices, their organizers artificially underestimated the volumes of extracted raw materials and sales volumes of finished products, as well as “changed” their price category.

For this purpose, inaccurate information was entered into the reporting financial and economic documentation.

Thus, the state budget of Ukraine lost a million hryvnias in the form of unpaid taxes.

At the same time, the perpetrators “laundered” the received “profits” through affiliated companies, in particular in the form of the purchase of technological products allegedly for the needs of the enterprise.

It was established that the criminal scheme caused losses to the state budget of more than UAH 4.5 million.

According to SBU materials, the head of the mining company was notified of suspicion under two articles of the Criminal Code of Ukraine:

▪️ Part 2 Art. 209 (legalization (laundering) of proceeds obtained by crime);

▪️ Part 1 Art. 364-1 (abuse of authority by an official of a legal entity of private law, regardless of the organizational and legal form).

During searches of the person’s residence and the premises of the enterprise, law enforcement officers found:

▪️ financial and economic documentation;

▪️ draft records;

▪️ bank cards with proof of receipts.

Investigative and operative actions are ongoing to establish all the circumstances of the crime and bring the culprits to justice.

The investigation was conducted by SBU officers of the Zhytomyr region together with the National Police under the procedural guidance of the regional prosecutor’s office.
