In Odesa region, border guards, together with the National Police and under the procedural guidance of the prosecutor’s office, detained a local resident who had organized a scheme to help individuals obtain illegal exemptions from military service.
This was reported by Censor.NET with reference to the State Border Guard Service.
As noted, the 34-year-old man offered draft-eligible individuals a service involving influence over officials at the territorial recruitment center to obtain a fake exemption from military service.
