SBI Completes Borisov Forgery Case

The State Bureau of Investigation has completed the investigation of another criminal case against the former head of the Odessa Regional Territorial Center for Recruitment and Social Support, Yevhen Borisov. He is accused of forging documents to receive payments and vacation.

According to the investigation, he filed a non-combat injury as one related to the defense of the state. Based on the erroneous decision of the service inspection and the conclusion of the medical and social expert commission, he was awarded an additional reward of 250 thousand hryvnias and given a five-month leave for treatment. The bureau claims that he used this time, in particular, to vacation abroad and purchase real estate in one of the EU countries.

Yevgeny Borisov is a figure in the EBK database.

As a reminder, SBI officers detained the former employee in Kyiv on December 25. The bureau had information that after leaving the pre-trial detention center, he planned to hide from the investigation, in particular, to go abroad.

He was informed of the suspicion of committing new criminal offenses provided for in Part 3 of Article 27, Part 1 of Article 114-1 (organization of obstruction of the lawful activities of the Armed Forces of Ukraine during a special period), Part 3 of Article 27, Part 1 of Article 366 (organization of the preparation and issuance by an official of a knowingly false official document) of the Criminal Code of Ukraine.
