The head of the regional territorial center for recruitment and social support demanded from an agricultural entrepreneur an undue benefit for a deferment from conscription for military service.

The TCC official was detained on October 21 after receiving fuel coupons. In his car they found not only coupons, but also 13 thousand dollars. USA and 73 thousand UAH in cash. Also, fuel cards for more than 1 thousand liters of gasoline and diesel were found in the office of the military commissar. He has already been informed on suspicion of receiving unlawful benefits – Part 3 of Art. 368 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine.
