A former member of parliament, in cooperation with medical staff, offered men of conscription age the chance to buy "disability." Law enforcement managed to detain participants in the scheme.
Former MP took money to have disability status assigned
A former MP, whose name was not specified, organized a scheme in which he registered clients at hospitals and then helped obtain disability status for them. The official was detained by officers of the Security Service and the police. This was reported by the SBU.
The operator offered men a Group III disability to avoid conscription. To do this, the ex-MP, through his connections in medical facilities in the Mykolaiv region, registered those liable for military service for "inpatient care" allegedly for treatment of cardiological and neurological conditions.
The men were then discharged and given commission conclusions granting them Group III disability, which subsequently allowed them to receive a deferment.
For his "services" the former MP took 10 thousand dollars. The suspected criminal and an intermediary were detained after receiving part of the funds.

He was notified of suspicion of abuse of influence committed by prior agreement with a group of persons. Other participants in the scheme are also expected to be held accountable. For the crime they face up to 8 years in prison with confiscation of property.
Officials are being exposed for organizing criminal schemes
Recall that NABU and SAP notified an employee of the Security Service of suspicion who, according to the investigation, together with an accomplice organized a scheme of fictitious employment of those liable for military service at a critically important enterprise. For money, men received reservations, although they did not actually work there.
The State Bureau of Investigation also notified two heads of territorial recruitment centers of suspicion who, according to the investigation, entered false data about the mobilization of almost 50 people into the "Obereg" register to improve performance indicators. Among them were people with deferments, people with disabilities and even servicemembers who were already serving. At the same time, the Volyn territorial recruitment center denies that this was fictitious mobilization: they said the data may have been entered late to update the information.
And in Zakarpattia, law enforcement carried out searches at the Mukachevo district territorial recruitment center and the local medical commission due to a possible large-scale scheme of illegally removing those liable for military service from the registry. About 1 500 men are being checked, who may have been illegally issued unfitness or other documents to remove them from the registry.
