Thanks to prosecutors, company reimbursed more than UAH 4.2 million of unpaid tax in Lviv region
Prosecutors of the Lviv Regional Prosecutor’s Office have secured the payment of more than UAH 4.2 million of unpaid tax to the budget.
The investigation established that an official of a company whose main activity is wholesale and retail trade in parts and accessories for motor vehicles entered into a number of agreements with other companies. Based on these agreements, the company received more than UAH 28 million as payment for spare parts.
At the same time, these financial transactions were deliberately not reflected in the company’s accounting and annual tax reports as income.
Thus, due to the failure to include the aforementioned income in the taxable object, the company failed to pay income tax in the total amount of more than UAH 4.2 million.
As part of the pre-trial investigation in the criminal proceedings, the suspects have compensated the losses in full. Therefore, the prosecutors filed a motion to the court to release him from criminal liability over the fact of intentional tax evasion (Part 4 of Art. 212 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).
The pre-trial investigation was conducted by detectives of the Territorial Department of the Economic Security Bureau in Lviv region.
Note: In accordance with Article 62 of the Constitution of Ukraine, a person is presumed innocent of committing a crime and shall not be subjected to criminal punishment until his or her guilt is proved in accordance with the law and established by a guilty verdict.
