Former Director of Lviv Aircraft Repair Plant Faces Embezzlement Charges
Alexander Kravchuk, the former director of Lviv Aircraft Repair Plant, is facing new allegations of embezzling millions of state funds. The press service of the Security Service in Lviv region announced on Friday, April 5th, that during Kravchuk’s tenure, nearly 1.5 million hryvnias were misappropriated from the defense budget.
The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) revealed that Kravchuk orchestrated «money laundering schemes» by entering into lucrative contracts for the supply of goods through commercial entities, resulting in significant losses to the budget. Kravchuk has been charged with two offenses — one in February 2024 for the embezzlement of nearly 900 thousand hryvnias, and another for the misappropriation of nearly 500 thousand hryvnias. If found guilty, he could face up to six years in prison for each charge.
