In Lviv, law enforcement officers exposed the director of a charitable organization who organized  illegal traffic for conscripts - transporting them to Moldova or Romania for $15,000. UNN reports this with reference to the press service of the Special Prosecutor's Office of the Western Region. 

Under the procedural supervision of the Lviv Specialized Defense Prosecutor's Office of the Western Region, a 46-year-old director of a charitable organization was served a notice of suspicion on organizing the illegal transportation of persons across the state border of Ukraine (Part 3 Art. 332 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine)
