Mită de un milion de dolari pentru drone. Averea ilegală a unui oficial ucrainean, ascunsă în criptomonede
Ukrainian authorities are investigating a bribery case involving a border police official who allegedly received $1 million for facilitating drone deliveries. The investigation revealed cryptocurrency transactions worth millions of hryvnias. The National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office (SAP) are examining the official and a private company owner for bribery and money laundering. The official reportedly received 50,000 USDT, equivalent to about $50,000, and converted over 15.4 million hryvnias into USDT. The case also involves a drone manufacturer who won a contract under suspicious circumstances, with claims of collusion among officials to secure a bribe to ensure contract completion. The investigation continues, focusing on illicit benefits and money laundering under Ukrainian law.
