Full brothers Medvedchuk and Kozak are suspected of tax evasion of UAH 75 million

The State Bureau of Investigation and the Security Service of Ukraine reported the suspicion to the brothers of former people’s deputies Viktor Medvedchuk and Taras Kozak, as well as to two of their accomplices. They are accused of organizing a tax evasion scheme at one of the enterprises of the Lviv region, which caused losses to the state of tens of millions of hryvnias.

According to the investigation, the scheme operated from 2017 to 2022 at the brick manufacturing enterprise. Criminals forged documents on the volume of production, sold part of the unaccounted-for production for cash and falsified reporting. Thus, they hid products worth almost UAH 160 million and avoided paying taxes in the amount of about UAH 75 million.
