Served in the occupation police, then hid out in Lviv: 12 years imprisonment with confiscation of property
Following public prosecution by prosecutors of the Zaporizhzhia Regional Prosecutor’s Office, the court found a 29-year-old resident of Zaporizhzhia region guilty of collaborationist activity.
In June 2022 the man voluntarily joined the occupation police in the Vasylivka district. Together with representatives of the occupying authorities he patrolled the village of Mykhailivka, conducted unlawful searches of pro-Ukrainian residents’ homes, and guarded the station during the pseudo-referendum on the “annexation” of Zaporizhzhia region to the Russian Federation.
At the end of 2023 the man traveled to territory under Ukrainian control and settled with relatives in Lviv, posing as an internally displaced person. There he was detained by law enforcement.
The court sentence is 12 years imprisonment with confiscation of all property and a ban on holding positions in law enforcement bodies and government for 10 years.
Until the sentence takes legal effect, he will remain in custody.
