The Security Service neutralized another three schemes of illegal departure of men of military age abroad. For their services, the organizers of the schemes received from 6.5 to 9 thousand dollars.

This is reported by the SSU.

The law enforcement officers detained an official of the local unit of the State Border Service, who for money helped men of draft age to enter the neighboring country illegally. For the conspiracy, the border guard used his own crypto wallet, where he accepted payments from his clients.

Two more such channels of illegal departure were also eliminated in Zakarpattia Oblast. One of the schemes was organized by two local residents who ferried the evaders to the EU across the border river. An inflatable boat was used to transport customers, which was bought specifically for this purpose.

The second «scheme» was organized by a resident of Khust district. Having involved two accomplices in the «case», she led the men to the border through little-known tropes.

In each of the schemes, the organizers received from the client from 6.5 to 9 thousand dollars. The cost of such «services» depended on the urgency of the escape and its method.

Law enforcement officers continue to establish the circumstances of the crimes. Arrested organizers of criminal schemes face up to 9 years in prison with confiscation of property.

We will remind how the body of the tenth person who drowned since the beginning of May was brought to the shore of the Tisza.
