The platoon commander of the 211 pontoon-bridge brigade is wanted.
This was reported on December 26 by the Office of the Prosecutor General. We are talking about abuse of authority by a military official, unauthorized abandonment of a military unit, as well as desertion.
According to the investigation, from February to May 2024, while staying in the mission zone in the East of Ukraine, the suspect repeatedly used violence against military personnel.
In February 2024, while in the Dnepropetrovsk region, he beat a soldier because he was intoxicated. Subsequently, while in the Donetsk region, the suspect beat the soldier again. He ordered his subordinates to tie him to a wooden structure. The suspect also beat another soldier over a dispute over the release of a video on the Internet about improper living conditions. In addition, in May, while in the Kharkov region, he beat a subordinate because of allegedly inappropriate treatment of him.
Due to the fact that the suspect is hiding from the investigation, he is wanted.
Previously, the commander of the 211th pontoon-bridge brigade, where the military was abused, was released from custody on bail. This was reported by the Public with reference to the Ternopil Specialized Prosecutor’s Office in the field of defense of the Western region. The prosecutor’s office did not say whether he paid bail in the amount of UAH 908,400 himself, or if they paid it for him.
Suspect Oleg Poberezhnyuk appears in the case of abuse of official position. The brigade officers may have physically abused the military and demanded funds from them.
