❗️ In Poltava region a man was mobilized after a stroke and with chronic illnesses - Lubinets demands an investigation
Ombudsman of the Verkhovna Rada for Human Rights Dmytro Lubinets appealed to the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine demanding a review of the legality of the mobilization of a resident of Poltava region who, according to his mother, had suffered a stroke, had a number of chronic illnesses, and had been removed from the military register.
This case became known during a meeting of the Temporary Investigative Commission dedicated to human rights compliance at the territorial recruitment and social support centers of Poltava region. The ombudsman’s regional representative Vladyslav Nosenko participated in the meeting.
According to the man’s mother, her son was mowing grass near his own house when representatives of the TRC approached him. The woman claims they used physical force against him, after which the man was mobilized.
She also reported that her son had previously been removed from the military register, had suffered a stroke, had cardiovascular diseases and other health problems that the ombudsman did not disclose for ethical reasons. Despite this, the military medical commission declared him fit for military service.
The woman said she provided documents confirming her son’s removal from the military register. She also noted that the corresponding status was reflected in the 'Reserv+' app.
The ombudsman’s representative in the security and defense sector bodies, Yurii Kovbasa, sent an official request to the Ministry of Defense demanding documentary confirmation of the grounds for the man’s VLK (military-medical commission) examination, an explanation for the change in his military registration status, the legality of the mobilization decision, and information about his military service.
Commenting on the situation, Dmytro Lubinets emphasized that such cases require a thorough and impartial investigation, and that all decisions must be made solely on the basis of facts, evidence and legal requirements.
Separately, the ombudsman stated that the practice of so-called 'busification' must be finally stopped, because it, in his words, has no place in a rule-of-law state where the highest values are life, dignity and human rights.
📌 And you know what’s worst here, it’s that in reality cases of this kind are far from being only in the hundreds…
All those pompous statements about 'life, dignity, rights as the highest value' were crossed out after one 'well-wisher' put the Constitution on pause in his bathroom — and gave the green light — to himself and his accomplices to wipe with it the places from which they expel the waste produced by what they consumed through looted corrupt means!
