Nasirov is charged under Article 364 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (the abuse of power or official position).
NABU suspects that the SFS-approved installment plan for rent payments for gas production was part of the scheme by MP Oleksandr Onyshchenko's firms on misappropriation of funds PJSC Ukrgasvydobuvannia in the amount of UAH 740.07 million.

And due to this, they transferred part of the money to the accounts of Ukrgazvydobuvannia under the guise of income from joint operations. This was the actual reason to secure an installment plan with the State Fiscal Service, NABU finds.
Roman Nasirov in his earlier comments to the media said he did not recall the circumstances under which he signed the documents granting benefits to the firms of the fugitive MP, claiming that in 2015-2016, many companies in this sphere secured their installment plans under 36% per annum, provided by the Tax Code.
Later it was reported that SACPO suspects Chairman of the State Fiscal Service of Ukraine Roman Nasirov of committing acts which resulted in a damage to the state in the amount of UAH 2 billion
