Press spokesperson Marianna Négyessynné Bodó stated: according to the accusation, the man who has been involved in the distribution of alcohol products for years – one of the defendants in the case – used false invoices in 2015-2017 in order to avoid paying VAT on the domestic sales of goods purchased from the European Union, including a liquor wholesaler from Kiskőrös he also involved an acquaintance who manages a company.
In the beginning, they worked together, and then between June 2018 and July 2020, the latter man became independent, within the framework of a new company, and carried out the domestic resale of alcohol purchased directly from abroad using the same method.
The two men, with the help of their colleagues, created an invoicing chain, using and alternating several companies, in which companies that did not actually engage in economic activity, partly in the name of Romanian, Slovak and Ukrainian Stromans, were listed as community purchasers and first domestic sellers. The companies registered with the registered office provider had no assets, no accounting, and no tax returns were prepared after some time.
