The State Bureau of Investigation will open criminal proceedings if it establishes that the disability was granted unreasonably. This was stated by the SBI communications adviser Tetyana Sapian on the air of "We-Ukraine", UNN reports.
She recalled the case when the head of the MSEC and her son, who holds a position in the Pension Fund, were exposed for illegal enrichment and fraud with medical documents.
"The question arises: how did a person who works in government agencies get such wealth? She was notified of being suspected of illicit enrichment, and a pre-trial investigation is underway. This topic remains relevant for the SBI as well. At the beginning of the full-scale invasion, the law enforcement agency detected offenses in various bodies for illegal enrichment, for example, the TCC - Odesa Military Commissariat, which is currently in jail. All areas that affect the defense capability of our country were in the field of view of the SBI," she said.
According to her, law enforcement agencies have been instructed to verify the decisions of these medical and social commissions to establish disability with officials of the relevant state bodies.
"Based on the results of the inspection, if there are suspicions that a person working in government agencies received a disability illegally, this will be the basis for criminal proceedings. These may be various articles of the Criminal Code of Ukraine - forgery, fraud, illicit enrichment and participation in an organized criminal group. Our task is to bring this case to court," Sapian added.
