According to the investigation, in 2020, the head of a state institution of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, in collusion with the owner and director of a private enterprise, ensured the conclusion of a contract for the supply of computer equipment in the amount of more than UAH 26 million.
The company subsequently purchased this equipment through gasket companies from the manufacturer at market prices and delivered it to the customer at a price artificially increased by almost three times.
As a result of the implementation of the scheme, UAH 16.6 million in losses were caused to the state. The actions of persons were qualified under part 5 of Art. 191 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine - misappropriation, waste of property or possession of it by abuse of official position.
VAKS chose a preventive measure against the director of the enterprise in the form of maintenance of the value with an alternative deposit of 3 million hryvnias. The ex-head of the "Service Center of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine" was given a preventive measure in the form of bail in the amount of 10 million hryvnias.

In addition, in the declaration, Mohyla and his wife indicated the temporary use of a MERCEDES-BENZ ML 250 CDI car, which belongs to the ex-official's mother.
