At the construction site of the Podil-Voskresensky Bridge in Kyiv, 24 million hryvnias were embezzled

The individual who signed the acceptance report faces 2 to 5 years of imprisonment.

Moreover, in September of this year, the same suspect was charged under the same article – at that time, due to unreasonably inflated prices for sand, the construction cost of the bridge increased by 6.5 million hryvnias. However, neither law enforcement nor local authorities seemed concerned about the blatantly corrupt practices during construction.

It’s worth noting the appalling state of many infrastructure objects in the capital, including bridges, which are in need of repairs. Instances of corruption are also regularly uncovered in these areas by law enforcement, yet the culprits remain unpunished.
