Начался судебный процесс по делу о хищении топлива с участием чиновников и бизнесменов

9 мая 2026 года в Лидетском отделении Федерального верховного суда начался крупный судебный процесс по делу о коррупции в отношении 15 обвиняемых, связанных с хищением 3,8 миллиона литров топлива.

Слушание в зале суда на улице Деджазмач Бекеле Вейя началось с опозданием более чем на час. Судьи оставались в своих кабинетах, пока полиция дежурила в узком и переполненном помещении, заполненном ожидающими родственниками обвиняемых. Дело основано на заявлениях о том, что должностные лица и бизнесмены незаконно выводили топливо из официальной цепочки поставок. Прокуратура предъявила обвинения 15 фигурантам в Федеральном верховном суде. Это разбирательство стало началом одного из крупнейших правительственных процессов по делам о коррупции за последние месяцы. На момент публикации подробная информация об исходе слушания отсутствовала.
