The Shevchenko District Court of Kyiv arrested the former director of the Department of State Procurement of the Ministry of Defense, Bohdan Khmelnytskyi, who is suspected of corruption.

This is reported by "Ukrainian Pravda" with reference to its own sources.

The exhibitor was taken into custody, but the court gave Khmelnytskyi the opportunity to be released on bail.

It is probably about the sum of 26 million hryvnias.

However, the prosecutor's office does not officially disclose the amount of the bail.

The department only stated that they consider such an amount too small and therefore have already appealed against such a decision.

It should be noted that Khmelnytskyi is suspected of large-scale "money laundering" in his position as director of the Department of State Procurement of the Ministry of Defense.

We will remind you that earlier, the director of the procurement department of the Ministry of Defense, Bohdan Khmelnytskyi, was dismissed from his position due to a scandal involving food purchases of the Ministry of Defense.
