The SBI continues to expose and prosecute traitors and collaborators who cooperated with the invaders during the russian invasion.

Employees of the SBI have completed a pre-trial investigation against a forestry worker who provided timber to the occupiers.

The indictment was sent to court.

After the occupants seized the village of Borova in Izium region, a senior forester of the Borovske forestry voluntarily cooperated with the enemy. He was appointed to a position in the so-called 'Borovske forestry' created by the invaders.

In his new "position", the defendant performed organisational and administrative functions, provided the occupiers with logistical support, and supervised fire safety.

After the village was liberated, the collaborator was detained.

The senior forest master is accused of voluntarily holding a position in illegal authorities in the temporarily occupied territories (Part 5 of Article 111-1 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).

The sanction of the article provides for imprisonment for up to 10 years.

SBI agents also served a notice of suspicion in absentia to a traitor who started working in a prison set up by the occupiers.

Immediately after the start of the russian full-scale invasion, he did not show up at his place of service in Vovchansk, Kharkiv region, and stayed to wait for the enemy at his place of residence in the village of Dvorichna.

When the occupiers entered the village, the traitor voluntarily joined them and was appointed "acting policeman" in the occupation prison that the russians had set up in Dvorichna. On the instructions of the occupiers, he received and guarded detainees and ensured their escort.

The defendant fled with the occupiers to russia after the liberation of Kharkiv region.

He is suspected of collaboration and desertion (Part 7 Article 111-1, Part 4 Article 408 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).

The sanction of the articles provides for a sentence of up to 15 years' imprisonment.

Two more former law enforcement officers from Luhansk region were served suspicion notices of collaboration.

It has been established that in the summer of 2022, after the seizure of the town, the traitors immediately received an offer to take up positions in the Belokurakivka local police.

In addition to the functions of "protecting order", the collaborators participated in pro-russian propaganda. They periodically appeared in informational videos on the website of the so-called "Ministry of Internal Affairs" of luhansk terrorists with propaganda slogans and distorted information about the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

The criminals are suspected of collaboration - voluntary occupation of positions in illegal law enforcement agencies established in the temporarily occupied territory - under Part 7 of Article 111-1 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine.

The article provides for imprisonment for up to 15 years with confiscation of property.

Procedural supervision is provided by the Kharkiv Specialised Defence Prosecutor's Office of the Eastern Region and the Kyiv City Prosecutor's Office.
