In particular, the NACP sent a protocol to the Kovpakivskyi District Court of Sumy against the acting deputy head of the investigation department of the Sumy District Police Department of the Main Department of the National Police of the region on the grounds of an administrative offense under Part 1 of Article 172-9 of the Code of Administrative Offenses.
Upon detecting a corruption offense, he failed to take the measures provided for by law, namely, he failed to enter information into the Unified Register of Pre-trial Investigations upon a reasonable conclusion of the NACP.
The conclusion stated that officials of the Sumy Regional Charitable Foundation for Health Care Development misappropriated charitable aid through abuse of office (part 4 of Article 191 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine). To conceal this fact, the official provided the NACP with false information about the pre-trial investigation allegedly initiated on the basis of a substantiated conclusion under Art. 358 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine
Also, a report on committing an administrative offense related to corruption under Art. 172-7 of the Code of Administrative Offenses was drawn up against the Head of the Legal Support Department of the Main State Tax Service in Lviv region, a member of the commission on suspension of registration of a tax invoice/adjustment calculation in the Unified Register of Tax Invoices.
It was established that at the meeting of the aforementioned commission, he failed to report the existence of a conflict of interest and, acting in the context of a real conflict of interest, made a decision regarding a legal entity whose director is a close person.
In addition, in February, the NACP drew up a protocol on administrative offenses related to corruption under parts 1, 2 of Article 172-7 of the Code of Administrative Offenses against the Deputy Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine (Rostyslav Shurma - ed.).
He (Shurma - ed.) organized the Electricity Committee at the Presidential Administration, at whose meetings he took part in discussions and made a number of decisions. In particular, regarding payments to companies that produce electricity from alternative sources for the product they produce. Including seven companies whose ultimate beneficial owner is his own brother.
The NACP also issued an order to the mayor of Starokostiantyniv demanding to eliminate the direct reporting relationship between him and his wife, who holds one of the senior positions in the staff of the Starokostiantyniv City Council.
The agency explained that in 2023, he registered a marriage with a subordinate, which resulted in a relationship of direct subordination, which is a violation of the restrictions set forth in Article 27 of the Law of Ukraine "On Prevention of Corruption".
In addition, prior to the marriage, the mayor gave bonuses to a subordinate who was his fiancée and with whom he had an off-duty relationship.
Based on this fact, the NACP drew up and sent to the National Police a substantiated conclusion that the actions of the mayor constituted a corruption-related offense - violation of the requirements for preventing and resolving conflicts of interest
