A group involved in fraudulent activities related to water fund land in the Obukhiv district has been exposed in Ukraine. The perpetrators face up to 12 years in prison.
Investigators from the Obukhiv district police department, with the support of the UCR in the Kyiv region, documented the actions of the suspects.
It was established that the accused, in collusion with unidentified individuals, organized the forgery and subsequent use of a counterfeit state certificate of ownership and a letter from the State Geocadastre.
In December 2023, based on these forged documents, ownership of a 7.27-hectare plot of land belonging to the water fund in the Khalepean village council was registered.
To further legalize this property, in February 2024, the suspects entered into a sales contract, transferring the land to a controlled entity.
The value of the unlawfully acquired and transferred property exceeds 50 million hryvnias.
Investigators, under the procedural guidance of the Obukhiv District Prosecutor's Office, have charged three suspects with document forgery, large-scale fraud, and legalization of property obtained by criminal means (Part 3 of Article 358, Part 4 of Article 358, Part 5 of Article 190, Part 3 of Article 209 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).
