The SSU continues to cleanse its ranks. The SSU Main Directorate for Internal Security, together with the SBI, exposed an official of one of the SSU’s regional offices on anti-Ukrainian activities.

The woman justified russia’s armed aggression against Ukraine and denied war crimes committed by russian occupiers.

For example, the suspect tried to present the russian missile attack on the maternity hospital in Mariupol as ‘escalation’ and denied the facts of enemy shelling of Zaporizhzhia NPP.

As the SSU Head Vasyl Maliuk noted earlier, cleansing the Service of traitors and destructive elements is one of the priorities today. ‘We continue the course of self-cleaning of the SSU and are not going to stop. The SSU is not a place for the kremlin’s agents and people who do not believe in Ukraine’s Victory. If someone betrays their oath and the Ukrainian people, they must be held accountable,’ Vasyl Maliuk emphasized.

The exposed employee has been served a notice of suspicion under the Article 436-2.3 of the CCU (justification, recognition as lawful, denial of russia’s armed aggression against Ukraine, glorification of its participants committed by an official).

Court is to choose a measure of restraint.

The operation was carried out under the supervision of Rivne Specialized Military Prosecutor’s Office of the Western Region.
