Shabunin hits a target from 100 meters — 10 out of 10: the anti-corruption activist was discharged, while a blind man was mobilized
In a video, Vitaliy Shabunin said he has problems with peripheral vision, but can see straight ahead through his glasses at 100%.
“I hit a static target from 100 meters 10 out of 10 using mechanics,”
— the activist said. He also said he drives a car, although due to a limited field of vision he sometimes doesn’t notice vehicles to the side. Still, he was discharged from service.
And this sharply contrasts with a case discussed at a meeting of the relevant temporary investigative commission. In Odesa, a man who has been visually impaired since childhood was detained by Territorial Recruitment Center staff with their body cameras turned off and held for several days. Despite a court decision, he still has not been removed from the military register. Why in one case a vision impairment becomes grounds for discharge from service, while in another a blind person must fight to have a court decision enforced? That question remains unanswered.
