A criminal scheme to evade mobilization has been uncovered in the Chernivtsi region.
“Prosecutors of the Chernivtsi Specialized Prosecutor’s Office in the field of defense of the Western region have submitted the indictment to the court.”
The investigation revealed that a lieutenant colonel and a senior sergeant conspired with representatives of the military medical commission (MMC). They established a scheme for receiving improper benefits for ‘resolving issues’ for individuals subject to military duty.
Initially, the accused demanded **6,000 USD** from a woman for the issuance of a military ticket for her husband without his personal presence. Later, they decided to declare the husband partially fit and employ him as a driver in the TCC and SP to avoid deployment to the frontline.
Law enforcement documented the criminal mechanism, detained the commander while receiving a portion of the funds, and prevented the illegal appointment.
