23 cases were documented when 18 men of draft age crossed the state border without him, based on the letters of a people’s deputy.
As noted in the notice on the website of the State Bureau of Investigation, starting in July 2022, the people’s deputy sent letters on his behalf to the State Border Service of Ukraine to grant permission for the departure of men in the guise of drivers who were supposed to accompany him abroad.
“23 cases were documented when, on the basis of the MP’s letters, 18 men of conscription age crossed the state border without him, because at the time of their crossing he was either already abroad or did not leave the country at all,” the report says.
Sometimes for trips abroad, he needed up to five drivers at the same time. It is emphasized that three of such “drivers” did not return to Ukraine at all.
Thus, the People’s Deput was informed of the suspicion of organizing illegal transportation of persons across the state border using official position and official forgery (Part 2 of Article 332, Part 1 of Article 366 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine). The sanction of the articles provides for punishment in the form of deprivation of liberty for a term of up to 7 years.
In addition, the deputy was handed a motion to choose a preventive measure in the form of detention, which will be submitted for consideration by an investigating judge.
Also, people’s deputy and persons who traveled abroad in this way are searched.
As a source in the law enforcement agencies informed UNIAN, we are talking about Kostyantyn Bondarev from “Batkivshchyna”, who is a member of the Committee of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine on Transport and Infrastructure.
