The Security Service blocked three more schemes of evasion of mobilization and illegal departure abroad of men of conscription age. Organizers sent evaders through forests and border rivers.
This was reported by the Security Service of Ukraine.
As noted, as a result of comprehensive measures in various regions of Ukraine, the organizers of the riots were detained.
Among them is a figure who used a forged certificate of a non-existent «committee to fight corruption».
For money, they offered conscripts to avoid conscription and flee abroad, bypassing checkpoints.
The cost of such «services» was estimated at 12 thousand dollars. The amount depended on the urgency of the escape and its method.
Scheme for dodgers in Odesa region
In Odesa, three businessmen were detained who organized a channel for evaders to escape to the European Union. To find customers, they placed «advertisements» on the TikTok social network.
Then they hid the fugitives in the cargo compartments of trucks and transported them to the border. There, the evaders were given an inflatable boat to be transported to a neighboring country across the border river. Another «route» ran through previously prepared forest paths.
After crossing the border, the fugitives were met by one of the organizers of the «scheme» and for an additional fee helped them to legalize outside of Ukraine.
Scheme for dodgers in Bukovyna
In Bukovyna, a group that organized another channel of illegal migration to the EU was neutralized.
According to the SSU, the leader of the group was a recidivist who already had a criminal record for transporting illegal immigrants across the border. Together with two accomplices, they led the evaders to the neighboring country through the forests. One of the members of the group used a fake ID of a public «anti-corruption officer». He presented this forgery at checkpoints when he was transporting evaders to the «destination point» near the border.
Scheme for evaders in Transcarpathia
In Transcarpathia, three more residents of the region were detained, who tried to ferry several potential conscripts from the Rakhove district to the EU through the so-called «green zone».
It is noted that investigations are ongoing in order to establish all the circumstances of the crimes and bring the culprits to justice.
It will be recalled that in Volyn, SBI employees exposed a criminal group that transported conscripts across the border to Poland, the cost of services was 3.5 thousand dollars per person.
