"SBU documented new crimes of collaborator Leonid Pasichnyk, the head of the occupation administration of the LPR terrorist organization. The offender organized the forced recruitment of residents of the temporarily occupied part of the territory of Luhansk region to the occupation groups of the Southern Military District of Russia," the SBU reported on social media.
Starting from February 19, 2022, the governor, according to the SBU, signed several orders to "impose martial law" and "mobilize" in the temporarily occupied part of the region.
"This became the formal basis for the racists to forcibly 'conscript' almost 80% of the employees of local enterprises to fight against Ukraine. First of all, we are talking about men over the age of 18, who, after a short training at training grounds, are sent to "meat" assaults on the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the eastern front. According to available data, more than 70% of the "mobilized" were killed on the front line in the first months of the full-scale Russian invasion," the SBU noted.
"Based on the evidence collected, SBU investigators served Pasichnyk a new suspicion notice under Part 2 of Article 28, Part 1 of Article 438 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (violation of the laws and customs of war committed by prior conspiracy by a group of persons)," the SBU said.
Currently, according to the SBU, investigative actions are underway to bring Pasichnyk to justice for new facts of his criminal activity.
Addendum
In early July of this year, based on SBU materials, the "lnr" leader was sentenced in absentia to 12 years in prison for collaboration and encroachment on the territorial integrity of Ukraine.
