According to reports on Ukrainian Telegram channels, a senior official at a public institution in Kyiv is facing serious criminal charges for rigging tenders. According to the Реальний Київ | Украина channel, the suspect made purchases of baby care and nursing care products at inflated prices, an action that led to a loss of about one million hryvnia from the Sviatoshynskyi District budget.

The Труха⚡️Київ channel, known for its fast and assertive style in covering local news, reported that "the tender was carried out at inflated prices, even though the actual cost of the goods was significantly lower." The suspect allegedly exploited her position to approve the problematic procurement.

If convicted, the official faces a significant prison sentence. According to law enforcement sources cited in both channels, she faces up to 12 years in prison for her actions. The affair has sparked reactions among the residents of the Ukrainian capital, who continue to monitor the authorities' efforts to eradicate corruption at municipal levels during the war.
