Details
According to the investigation, the lawyer, who is the founder and head of several enterprises, organized a scheme for the illegal seizure of property of the National Union of Artists of Ukraine in Lviv. Together with accomplices, he concluded fictitious contracts for construction work that was not actually carried out. After that, a debt was artificially created. In order to "repay" it, part of the premises was re-registered to controlled enterprises without the knowledge and consent of the owner.
Under the procedural guidance of prosecutors of the Prosecutor General's Office, an attorney was notified of suspicion of seizing other people's property on a particularly large scale by deception, committed by prior conspiracy by a group of persons, as well as of legalizing such property (Part 4 of Article 190, Part 1 of Article 209 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).
To re-register the real estate, new technical passports with different identification marks were made. Subsequently, the property was included in the authorized capital of another controlled company to give the transaction a legal appearance.
The amount of damages is about UAH 800,000. During the searches, documents, information carriers, and other evidence of involvement in the crime were seized. The illegally alienated property was seized.
