Based on evidence collected by the Security Service, another collaborator who worked for russia during the occupation of Kherson received a real prison sentence.
The convicted individual was a local unemployed man who, after the community was captured, voluntarily joined russia's 'penal administration in Kherson region'.
There, he was appointed as a guard at a russian torture chamber, which the invaders had set up in the then-captured Northern Penal Colony No. 90.
As a 'security unit inspector', he controlled the perimeter and prison blocks where members of the resistance movement were held.
People in the cells were systematically tortured: they were electrocuted, beaten with sticks, and kept in solitary confinement without food or water.
During the torture, the ruscists tried to 'extract' information about other patriots who are resisting the occupiers in the temporarily occupied part of Ukraine.
After Kherson's liberation, the traitor remained on the right bank of the region and did not leave his home for months, trying to evade justice.
The SSU established his location and detained him near the city in February 2024.
Based on the evidence collected by the SSU, the accused was found guilty under Article 111-1.7 of the CCU (collaboration).
Given his cooperation with the investigation, the court sentenced him to 14 years in prison with confiscation of property.
The investigation was carried out by the SSU Offices in Kherson and Zakarpattia regions under the procedural supervision of Zakarpattia Region Prosecutor's Office.
