Two shooters from the “LNR” will be tried in Lviv

Under the procedural leadership of the Lviv Regional Prosecutor’s Office, indictments against citizens of Ukraine were sent to the court. They are charged with treason, participation in a terrorist organization and activities of armed formations not provided for by law (parts 1, 2 of article 111, part 1 of article 258-3, part 2 of article 260 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).

The investigation established that in February 2022, residents of Luhansk Region voluntarily switched to the side of the enemy and joined the illegal armed formation of the People’s Militia of the LNR terrorist organization.

Men received military uniforms, weapons and were enrolled in rifle regiments as riflemen.

The accused were responsible for setting up and strengthening firing positions and trenches of the Russian army for the conduct of battle, and built dugouts. Also, those involved were on guard duty to protect the territory.

Their activities were suspended in July 2023, due to their capture in the territory of Donetsk region.

The pre-trial investigation was carried out by the investigators of the SBU Office in the Lviv region.

Note: in accordance with Art. 62 of the Constitution of Ukraine, a person is considered innocent of committing a crime and cannot be subjected to criminal punishment until his guilt is proven in a legal manner and established by a court verdict.
