A woman from Izium was sentenced to imprisonment for work at a humanitarian center during the occupation
A woman from Izium was sentenced to prison on charges of treason for her activity during the Russian occupation of the city. The defense claims that the woman was engaged in humanitarian aid to local residents.
This is reported by the State Bureau of Investigation and attorney Serhiy Pavlenko.
Before the full-scale invasion, the woman worked as an inspecting auditor at the local tax office. According to the investigation, during the occupation she helped residents get employed at municipal enterprises that continued to operate under the Russian occupation administration. The prosecution regarded this activity as aiding the occupiers.
After the fall of Izium, the woman remained in the city and participated in the work of the humanitarian center “White House.” There, local residents were issued food, baby food, medicines, hygiene products, and building materials, and helped resolve everyday and utility issues.
At the same time, as noted by Potapenko, the case materials do not mention passing military information to Russians, adjusting strikes, participating in repressions, or other actions directly aimed against Ukraine.
The defense insists that the woman acted under occupation and humanitarian crisis, and her activity was related to providing local residents with necessary items. According to the lawyers, such help cannot by itself be considered support for the occupation.
Nevertheless, the Pavlograd City District Court found the woman guilty of treason and sentenced her to imprisonment.
Currently the defense is appealing the verdict in the appellate court.
