In a week, 10 suspicions in the Kyiv City State Administration — Details from the deputy.
During the week, officials of the Kyiv City State Administration (KCSA) identified ten suspicions of corruption. However, according to Kyiv City Council deputy Andriy Vitrenko, this is just the beginning, as new investigations can be expected soon.
Vitrenko reported that suspicions of corruption schemes have already been identified among the directors of KCSA departments. This fact is considered a disgrace for the city authorities.
In addition, he emphasized that independent structures fighting corruption and drawing attention to corruption cases in KCSA will continue to take action within the law and bring cases to conclusion.
