The SBI detained a Kherson traitor who not only worked for the enemy, but also managed to become a russian citizen

The SBI employees served a notice of suspicion to the former deputy head of the department of quartermaster and economic support of the state institution "Northern Correctional Colony No. 90", who voluntarily went over to the enemy from the first days of the temporary occupation of Kherson.

At first, he participated in the illegal creation of the institution "Department of the Penitentiary Service in Kherson Region", which operated under the laws of the russian federation. Then the defendant received a senior position and a salary in rubles from the occupiers.

The traitor also had permission to pass the occupiers' checkpoints without hindrance and to carry weapons.

The man even took the oath of a russian citizen and received a russian passport. However, after the liberation of Kherson, the newly-made russian did not have time to escape, hid in the city and was detained by SBI officers together with the Security Service of Ukraine.

The detainee was served a notice of suspicion of high treason (Part 2 of Article 111 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).

The sanction of the article provides for punishment in the form of life imprisonment.

The court also imposed on him a custody as a measure of restraint.

The Kherson Regional Prosecutor's Office is providing procedural supervision.
