To do this, they entered into a conspiracy with members of an organized group that was a kind of "back office" of the company, informally controlled its activities and, for a certain percentage of the procurement amount, could ensure the victory of the "right" companies in UZ tenders.
During 2021-2022, UZ concluded contracts with companies controlled by the entrepreneur, which supplied products at prices above market prices. As a result of the scheme, Ukrzaliznytsia suffered losses in the amount of more than UAH 140 million.
