Military serviceman injured the head of a State Enforcement Service department in Poltava region: criminal proceedings opened
In Lokhvytsia in the Poltava region, a serviceman of the Pryluky District Territorial Center for Recruitment and Social Support (TCRC & SSp) during an argument inflicted bodily injuries of moderate severity on the head of a department of the State Enforcement Service.
This was reported by the Military Law Enforcement Service.
According to the Military Law Enforcement Service, on 21 October the serviceman came to the State Enforcement Service department to clarify the issue of unblocking a bank account that had been seized for nonpayment of a fine. During the conversation a dispute arose with the department head, after which the official sustained bodily injuries of moderate severity. He was taken to the hospital.
The police were called to the scene, and the serviceman was taken to the district police station to provide explanations and for procedural actions to be carried out. Law enforcement officers entered information into the Unified Register of Pre-Trial Investigations under part 2 of article 350 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine — on the fact of possible violence against an official.
That same day, after initial investigative actions were carried out, the serviceman, according to available information from the Military Law Enforcement Service, left the military unit without authorization. Information about possible prior violations needs to be verified.
The Military Law Enforcement Service emphasized that they are assisting in establishing all the circumstances of the incident and in an objective investigation, and that every instance of a possible offense must receive legal assessment.
"No argument gives the right to hit a person. If the serviceman's guilt is proven, he must be held accountable in accordance with the law. Military uniform does not exempt one from responsibility and cannot be used to justify violence," they added.
