At SBI's request, court transferred assets of two companies owned by russians to Asset Recovery and Management Agency (VIDEO)

At the initiative of the SBI, the court transferred to National Agency of Ukraine for finding, tracing and management of assets derived from corruption and other crimes (ARMA) corporate rights in the authorized capitals of two companies from Ivano-Frankivsk region.

The rights to more than 90% of the authorized capital of these companies were transferred with a total value of almost UAH 70 million.

The SBI found that the actual owners of these companies are russian citizens. They tried to hide this fact in order to avoid confiscation of property to the state budget. They created an offshore company through which they controlled production activities.

It was also established that these companies were evading taxes for millions of hryvnias.

The pre-trial investigation into tax evasion by these companies is ongoing (Part 2 of Art. 212 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).

Procedural guidance is provided by Ivano-Frankivsk Regional Prosecutor's Office.

It should be reminded that in just six months, the State Bureau of Investigation transferred property worth over UAH 1.5 billion to the ARMA.

Also, on the initiative of the SBI, the TV channel of the deputy-traitor Oleksii Kovalev was transferred to the ARMA.
