Mariupol port will be ordered to pay 6 million hryvnias to a company owned by a former minister linked to Taruta.

The Mariupol Sea Trade Port State Enterprise, which is under the control of the occupiers, owes 6,15 million hryvnias to a company affiliated with former Minister Roman Abramovsky, which was carrying out construction work on a grain terminal. 368 media became known from court ruling No. 905/1795/21.

In April 2018, the commercial port signed a contract with Riola-Modul LTD to build a grain handling facility. The contracted construction cost was UAH 139,35 million, including UAH 23,22 million in VAT.

The contractor completed construction work worth 134 million hryvnias, but the Mariupol port was only able to recover 127,87 million hryvnias.

In particular, the contractor failed to pay for the work in accordance with the acceptance certificates for completed construction work for July 2021.

Furthermore, the contractor, in accordance with the terms of the additional work contract, completed work totaling UAH 12,48 million. However, the port only partially fulfilled its payment obligations for the completed work, paying only UAH 7,28 million. Consequently, the outstanding balance under the Additional Work Contract amounted to UAH 5,2 million.

As a result, Riola-Modul LTD filed a claim with the Donetsk Regional Commercial Court for the recovery of a debt of UAH 11,35 million. Following the hearing, on October 14, 2022, the court ordered Mariupol Sea Trade Port State Enterprise to pay the debt of UAH 11,35 million, as well as a court fee of UAH 170.

Vyshgorod LLC "Riola-Modul Ltd" is registered as the owner of Ivano-Frankivsk resident Vladimir Dukhovich, the husband of the chief specialist of the Ministry of Energy Galina Dukhovich, who was dismissed in May 2019 and worked under the supervision of Igor Nasalik.

From 2009 to 2019, her husband, Volodymyr Dukhovich, headed Ukrstalmontazh Construction Company LLC, founded by Ukrstalkonstruktsiya PJSC, which is part of the family group of Gaiduk, the former Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council. Vitaliy Gaiduk and his wife, Elena. Vitaliy Gaiduk was previously a co-owner of the Industrial Union of Donbass, but on the eve of Viktor Yanukovych's rise to power, he sold his stake to a Verkhovna Rada deputy and, recently, the governor of the Donetsk region. Sergey Tarute.

Vladimir Dukhovich was also a partner in NPO Stalkonstruktsiya LLC, owned by Roman Abramovsky, the Minister of Environmental Protection and Natural Resources and former Deputy Minister of Regional Development, Construction, and Housing and Utilities. Furthermore, from 2008 to 2012, Abramovsky served as Chairman of the Board of Ukrstalkonstruktsiya, a private joint-stock company controlled by brothers Serhiy and Oleksandr Taruta.

In addition, Riola-module LTD LLC shares its registered address with Kyivhydromontazh PJSC and Kornel Ukraine LLC, which are owned by Svetlana Yurchenko, the wife of Roman Abramovsky.

Another interesting point: the period when Riola-Modul Ltd. received tenders coincides entirely with Nosalik's tenure as head of the Ministry of Energy, from 2016 to 2019. During this time, the company earned 3,6 billion hryvnias from tenders.
