According to UNN sources, it concerns a relative of Tetiana Krupa, the former head of the Khmelnytskyi MSEK.

SBI officers, in cooperation with the NACP, notified a former head of one of the departments of the Central-Western Interregional Office of the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine (Khmelnytskyi) of suspicion. She is a relative of the former head of the Khmelnytskyi MSEK. She is charged with intentionally submitting false information in a declaration

The investigation established that in September 2022, the official opened a bank account in Austria and transferred over 540 thousand US dollars to it in two payments.

As of today, the woman no longer holds a position in the system of the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine. The former official has been notified of suspicion under Part 2 of Article 366-2 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine - intentional submission by a declarant of knowingly false information, if such information differs from the truthful information by an amount exceeding 2,500 subsistence minimums for able-bodied persons

The sanction of the article provides for punishment of up to 2 years of imprisonment with deprivation of the right to hold certain positions or engage in certain activities for up to 3 years.
