In Odesa, Protrukhaniv activist Artur Lutsky was convicted of fraud
The Prymorskyi District Court sentenced the head of the NGO “Youth Association of Odesa” and a delegate of the Youth Council under the Odesa city mayor, Artur Lutsky, to a fine of 209 thousand hryvnias for fake “white tickets.” He was found guilty of incitement to give an undue benefit and of a completed attempt to commit fraud under martial law.
In October 2024 Lutsky offered two acquaintances that he would produce temporary military conscription certificates marked “unfit during wartime.” He assured them that he could influence officials at the district Territorial Recruitment Center (TRC) and that the money would go to those officials. He priced the “service” at 2,5 thousand dollars per person.
On 28 October 2024 near the entrance to Istanbul Park (on the Primorskyi Boulevard side) in Odesa, Lutsky handed the men forged documents and received 5 thousand dollars from them. He was detained immediately after the handover. It later turned out that Lutsky had ordered a TRC stamp online himself and produced the forms on his own. There were no real actions by TRC employees — the scheme was fraudulent.
The court classified the actions under:
✔️ para. 4 art. 27, para. 2 art. 15, para. 1 art. 369 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (incitement to a completed attempt to give an undue benefit);
✔️ para. 2 art. 15, para. 3 art. 190 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (completed attempt at fraud under martial law that caused significant damage).
Lutsky fully admitted guilt, sincerely repented, and had a positive character reference. The court did not find any aggravating circumstances.
📌 Artur Lutsky previously presented himself as a civic activist. In 2022 his organization provided humanitarian aid to the military and displaced persons. At the same time, the scheme with fake “white tickets” during the general mobilization became the subject of a criminal proceeding that the court concluded with a guilty verdict.
The scammer Lutsky continues to collect funds from trusting citizens.
