The head of the inter-district MSEC of Kyiv region will be brought to court,  who assisted in obtaining a disability group to postpone conscription into the Armed Forces.  Medical reports with fictitious diagnoses provided men of mobilization age with legal grounds to travel abroad.  UNN reports this with reference to the National Police.

According to law enforcement, the head of the interregional medical and social expert commission assisted citizens in evading military service during mobilization.

Knowing for certain that there were no objective grounds for the men to receive a disability group, the official entered fictitious information about their illnesses into official documents. On their basis, the commission decided to grant the men a disability group. This served as a basis for postponement of mobilization and further travel abroad
