The Security Service and the National Police have uncovered 8 schemes to avoid mobilization in Ukraine. Among the defendants in the cases is a former tax officer in Cherkasy region who used his old connections to sell positions in NGOs to evaders so that they could go abroad.
This was reported by the SBU.
The cost of such “services” ranged from 3 to 10 thousand US dollars. The amount depended on the urgency of the departure and the type of “scheme”.
▪️ In Vinnytsia region:
Three schemes for the escape of evaders were dismantled. Five criminals were detained: three of them offered conscripts to escape from Ukraine through the border areas of the Dniester River.
▪️У Cherkasy region:
A former tax officer was served with a notice of suspicion. Using his own connections, he “sold” positions in various NGOs that transport humanitarian aid.
In this way, the defendant “employed” evaders to enter their personal data into the Shlyakh information system as volunteers.
This “scheme” allowed conscripts to travel abroad under the guise of humanitarian aid drivers.
▪️На Kirovohrad region:
A dealer who sold fake certificates of fitness for service for health reasons was detained.
To obtain a fake, the offender “turned to” his accomplices from the local military medical commission.
▪️У Rivne region:
A deputy head of a local hospital was detained. In exchange for bribes, the official offered to issue a fictitious disability group to evaders and thus avoid conscription.
▪️На In Lviv region:
two more organizers of “schemes for evaders” were served with a notice of suspicion. They were residents of the region. One of them was selling fake certificates of deregistration. The other entered data into the Shlyakh information system for traveling abroad under the guise of volunteers.
Organizers of criminal schemes face up to 9 years in prison with confiscation of property. Their clients face up to 5 years in prison.
