As the law enforcement officers defined that the head of the company engaged in international transportation and his accomplices organized an illegal transfer service for men of conscription age. "Businessmen" looked for clients who intended to avoid mobilization and travel illegally abroad for personal purposes.
For this purpose, the perpetrators made fictitious employment contracts with the pseudo-drivers, and then the data about the so-called "drivers" went to the relevant information system. Their "services" were valued at between 5,000 and 7,000 US dollars per person. The law enforcement officers exposed one of the participants of the criminal scheme at Shehyni border crossing point during an attempt to transport their "client".
In the course of authorized searches, law enforcement officers revealed and seized mobile phones, computer equipment, drafts, fictitious employment documents and money, which were probably obtained by criminal means.
As a result, the organizer of the illegal scheme, a 47-year-old resident of Ivano-Frankivsk oblast, and three of his accomplices have been charged with suspicion. The sanction of the article predicts punishment - deprivation of liberty for a period of seven to nine years with deprivation of the right to hold certain positions or engage in certain activities for a period of up to three years with confiscation of property. Custody was chosen as a preventive measure for the organizer of the channel of illegal transportation of men.
Actions to stop illegal activities were carried out by border guards of the operative and investigative unit of Lviv border guard detachment, employees of Lviv department of the Department of Internal Security of the National Police of Ukraine, and investigators of the National Police in Lviv oblast under the procedural guidance of Lviv specialized prosecutor's office in the field of defense of the Western region.
