National Police of Ukraine said.<\/a> on the exposure of more than 40 fictitious companies acting in the interests of a criminal organisation. These companies were part of a \u00abconversion centre\u00bb engaged in tax minimisation and large-scale money laundering. Investigators found that the structure of the scheme included fictitious suppliers, organisers and intermediaries, and the group's activities caused losses to the state of more than UAH 100 million.<\/p>\n

Among the directors of the exposed companies are citizens of Ukraine who have been living in the so-called \u00abDonetsk People's Republic\u00bb since 2014.
