Sphere of corrupt activity: migration service.

Region of corruption activity: the city of Kyiv.

Qualification: Serhiy Donsky's actions were qualified under Part 5 of Art. 191 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine.

Status: at large.

The plot of the case: in September 2023, NABU and SAP, under the operational support of the Department of Internal Security of the National Police, informed two ex-officials of the State Migration Service of Ukraine, as well as a businessman, a citizen of the Russian Federation, about the suspicion of embezzlement of budget funds in the amount of more than UAH 88 million.

It was about: 

● ex-deputy Chairman of the State Internal Revenue Service Serhii Donskyi;

● Volodymyr Vakalyuk, ex-head of the Department of Resource and Economic Support and Capital Construction of the DMS;

● businessman Salgerey Salgereev.

The actions of persons were qualified under part 5 of Art. 191 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine.

The investigation established that in 2015, the DMS received a building in the center of Kyiv from the state to house the service's central office.

The businessman, who for a long time was in "friendly" relations with representatives of the State Migration Service and other powerful officials, organized a long scheme of embezzlement of budget funds using controlled persons in the structure of the migration service.

Thus, for the implementation of the criminal plan, the businessman involved the head of the economic department of the DMS, and then the deputy head of the DMS, who, instead of properly performing their duties, for selfish reasons, contributed to the appropriation of the funds allocated for the construction of the building. In particular, they assisted the businessman in concluding contracts with the companies controlled by him regarding the execution of project and construction works, artificially limiting the participation of the rest of the enterprises in the competition.

For several years, the criminal group seized budget funds by overestimating the cost of completed works, issuing "empty acts" and duplicating works. As a result, the reconstruction of the building of the central office of the DMS has not been completed to this day, computer complexes with the appropriate software exist only on "paper", and those responsible for the reconstruction of the company "collapsed".

As a result of the implementation of the budget scheme, losses in the amount of more than UAH 88 million were caused.

In November 2023, the Appellate Chamber of the High Anti-Corruption Court left unchanged the arrest in absentia of the former deputy head of the State Migration Service Serhiy Donskyi.

Subsequently, in June 2024, NABU and SAP also informed the ex-head of the State Migration Service of Ukraine, Maksym Sokolyuk, about the suspicion of embezzlement of over UAH 88 million. 

In this way, the last link of the vertical of ex-employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, involved in the implementation of the scheme, was exposed. The actions of the suspect are classified under Part 5 of Art. 191 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. The VAKS judge chose a preventive measure against the former chairman

The State Migration Service of Ukraine in the form of a 3 million hryvnia deposit.

Persons who are potentially involved in the corruption scheme: the former head of the DMS Maksym Sokolyuk, the head of the economic department of the DMS Volodymyr Vakalyuk, as well as businessman Salgerey Salgereev, the organizer of the scheme, are also involved in criminal activities.
