Details
As reported by the Prosecutor General's Office, the investigation proved that in April 2014, after the occupation of the peninsula began, the former Ukrainian prosecutor sided with the aggressor state. He accepted the offer of representatives of the occupation administration of the Russian Federation and took the position of the so-called "prosecutor".
Since 2018, the convicted person has held leadership positions in illegally created "prosecutor's offices" in Crimea, organized the work of subordinates, and coordinated the activities of the occupation law enforcement agencies.
The case was heard in absentia, as the accused is hiding in the temporarily occupied territory.
