The head of the Mykolaiv regional center of medical and social expertise, after searches by law enforcement officers, found more than 450,000 dollars and her son's Russian passport.
This was reported by the press service of the SSU and the General Prosecutor's Office.
During the searches, more than 450,000 dollars and a collection of jewelry were found in the woman's possession, which she hid at various addresses. Most of it was found in the apartment of her son, an intern at a medical university, in whom the SSU also found a Russian passport.
The SBU notes that the man obtained citizenship of the aggressor country at the former Consulate General of the Russian Federation in Odesa before the start of the full-scale war.
Also, in order to hide illegal income from corruption schemes for evaders, she issued three undeclared apartments for her son. During the years 2015-2023, the head of the MSEC noted in her declarations exclusively official profits in the total amount of slightly more than 2 million hryvnias.
In addition, it was established that in 2023 the official issued a 2nd disability group for herself and her son in order to receive additional benefits and social benefits from the state.
On the basis of the received materials, the issue of notifying the official about suspicion is resolved. An investigation is ongoing to establish all the circumstances of the crime.
We note that according to the specified information on the website of the health care department of the Mykolaiv Regional State Administration, we may be talking about acting chief physician Vira Beliakova.
This position has been held by a woman since 2019. In the declaration for the previous year, she indicated that she owns three apartments in Mykolaiv and a 2013 HYUNDAI passenger car.
Vira Beliakova's income last year amounted to almost 500,000 hryvnias. She received about 22,000 more pensions.
Corruption in MSEK
At the beginning of October, security forces detained Tetiana Krupa, head of the Medical and Social Expert Commission (MSEC) in the Khmelnytskyi region, in whose apartment millions of dollars were found. Her son, an official of the Pension Fund, was also detained.
During the searches, they found almost six million dollars in cash in various currencies. In addition, according to the SBI report, law enforcement officers seized documents confirming the illegal activities of officials and their money laundering through various business projects. During the investigation, the head of MSEC tried to get rid of part of the money by throwing two bags containing half a million dollars out the window.
The mass media wrote that Krupa was elected to the Khmelnytskyi Regional Council from «Servant of the People», she is a member of the Commission for Health Care and Social Policy, Education, Science, Culture, Religion, Youth and Sports. It was also reported on the website of the regional council that in 2021 Krupa headed the deputy group «For family values».
On October 7, the Pecherskyi District Court of Kyiv sent Krupa to custody for two months with an alternative bail of over 500 million hryvnias.
Later it became known that 49 prosecutors of the Khmelnytskyi region, led by the regional prosecutor Oleksii Oliinyk, issued a disability certificate for Tetiana Krupa.
