The head of the Southwestern Railway (SWR) state enterprise, Oleksiy Krivopishin, has been suspended by the Cabinet of Ministers due to corruption allegations. Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk announced this at a government meeting, according to Ukrayinska Pravda.

 

Specifically, it was reported that the Cabinet of Ministers decided to suspend the head of the Southwestern Railway from his duties due to several media reports of corruption at the company. Krivopishchin is also accused of using public funds to build the Olympic Village sports complex.

 

Yatsenyuk also instructed law enforcement agencies to initiate criminal proceedings on this matter.

 

Previously, the website "Nashi Groshi" reported that the Odessa Railway state enterprise signed a contract with the Braking Equipment Center LLC for the purchase of brake pads, passenger cars, and other railway equipment worth UAH 8 million. Through a Cyprus offshore company, the Braking Equipment Center LLC is closely linked to Oleksiy Krivopishin.

 

Oleksiy Krivopishin has headed Southwestern Railways since 2002. Prior to that, he served as deputy head of the Kyiv Central Railway Station and held other positions within the railway.
