Contractor accused of embezzling ₴600K in Valky road repair

The suspicion was reported to the director of the LLC, which was supposed to carry out road repair work in Valky, Kharkiv Region. The man is charged with taking someone else's property.

This was reported by the press service of the Kharkiv Regional Prosecutor's Office.

According to her, in May 2023, a contract was signed between the municipal institution and the contractor regarding road repairs.

The head of the LLC, knowing for a fact that the work was not completed in full, drew up and signed the relevant document, on the basis of which budget funds were subsequently transferred to the contractor's account. In particular, it was established that the defendant overstated the costs of equipment and used fuels and lubricants.

The amount of damage amounted to almost 600 thousand hryvnias.

The full range of individuals involved in the embezzlement of budget funds is currently being established.

The entrepreneur could face up to eight years in prison.
