Detectives of the Territorial Department of the ESBU in Kyiv region exposed an organised criminal group engaged in counterfeit fuel trade.

The investigation established that three people in Kyiv region organised the illegal storage and sale of counterfeit fuel for cash through their own network of petrol stations.

Employees of the ESBU conducted a series of searches in Kyiv and Kyiv region, during which they found and seized more than 110,000 litres of diesel, 17,000 litres of petrol and 8,000 litres of gas. The total estimated value of the seized goods is almost UAH 11 million.

According to experts the illegally produced fuel does not meet the requirements of the State Standards of Ukraine.

Currently the organiser and two executors were served a notice of suspicion of committing a criminal offence under Part 3 Art. 28, Part 1 Art. 204 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. The indictment was sent to court.

They face a fine of five to ten thousand tax-free minimum incomes with confiscation and destruction of the illegally manufactured goods.

Prosecutors of the Kyiv Regional Prosecutor's Office are providing procedural guidance.
