It's VERY unlikely EU funds were never involved. Public transport and transport infrastructure is often incentivized with public money, usually with EU participation. It's hard to find big projects that had 0 EU funding.

It's not a magic spell that works across corporate entity boundaries. The company itself must have taken a relevant contract project. There must be a clear intent to defraud the EU fund (defrauding others is not enough).

Saying defrauding others does not seem right to me. If you defraud a distributor of EU funds, that may have impacted EU funds; they would have a claim.

Do you have a source for your assertion?

I meant defrauding others who might have used EU funds to pay for your services - that's not defrauding the EU and a different court and agency will handle it.
