Area of Corrupt Activity: Local self-government.
Region of Corrupt Activity: Khmelnytskyi Region.
Legal Qualification: The actions have been classified under Part 1 of Article 366-2 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (filing inaccurate information in an asset declaration).

Case Details: In early August 2026, it became known that the Slavuta City District Court of Khmelnytskyi Region had found Nataliia Hryhorieva, a member of the Slavuta City Council, guilty of filing false information in her asset declarations. In her declarations for 2023 and 2024, the official concealed information about real estate, income, financial assets, and financial liabilities. The court fined her UAH 51,000.
According to the court ruling, in her 2023 declaration, the council member concealed an apartment measuring 102 m² and valued at UAH 1.9 million, which at the time belonged to her mother; a 54 m² land plot; funds in bank accounts; and submitted inaccurate information about her loan liabilities. The total amount of inaccurate information was almost UAH 2.99 million.
In her 2024 declaration, Nataliia Hryhorieva failed to declare two apartments worth more than UAH 2.5 million, a land plot, income from business activities, and bank assets. She also incorrectly reported her financial liabilities under a loan. According to the investigation, the total amount of inaccurate information exceeded UAH 6.43 million.
In total, across her two declarations for 2023 and 2024, the council member reported false information concerning more than UAH 9.4 million.
In court, Nataliia Hryhorieva fully admitted her guilt and explained that she had made mistakes because she was unfamiliar with the declaration rules. According to her, she had inherited the apartments rather than purchased them. The council member also stated that she had not intended to conceal any property or income and that she had corrected all inaccuracies in her 2025 declaration.
Judge Tetiana Motoniuk found Nataliia Hryhorieva guilty under Part 1 of Article 366-2 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (filing inaccurate information in an asset declaration) and imposed a fine of UAH 51,000. In addition, the council member was banned for one year from holding positions in state authorities and local self-government bodies. The ruling may still be appealed.
Individuals Potentially Involved in Corruption Schemes: In this case, Hryhorieva acted independently.
Assets: In her 2025 declaration, Hryhorieva stated that she owned four apartments (acquired during the full-scale war with Russia), a garage, and, under shared ownership, two land plots and non-residential premises. She also rents another land plot.
In addition, in 2025, Hryhorieva purchased a Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross passenger car worth UAH 1,210,000.
The council member’s income for the same year amounted to UAH 4,731,979.
She declared UAH 850,000 in cash. Her bank accounts held UAH 95,618, USD 2,540, and EUR 925.
Authorities Responsible for Responding: Law enforcement agencies responded to Hryhorieva’s criminal activity in a timely manner.
