SSU exposes head of Poltava district court who worked for FSB and leaked data to enemy on Mariupol defenders
The SSU exposed another russian agent among Ukrainian top officials.
The traitor is the head of the Poltava District Court, recruited by the FSB to conduct intelligence and sabotage activities against Ukraine.
The official approached the russian special service on her own initiative at the beginning of the full-scale invasion.
At that time, she was in Berdiansk and worked as a judge in a district court.
After the seizure of the city, the woman voluntarily stayed in the temporarily occupied part of Zaporizhzhia oblast.
There, she ‘met’ a representative of the FSB and agreed to secretly cooperate for the benefit of the aggressor state.
The investigation established that in late March 2022 the judge had passed on to the occupiers information on movement of three soldiers of the Azov special forces unit from Mariupol to Mangush area.
On her ‘tip-off’, invaders tried to find the Ukrainian servicemen.
The traitor also called other court employees to support russian occupiers and cooperate with them.
If staff had objections, she would ‘inform’ russian punitive authorities about such employees.
However, last summer, the official moved to Ukraine-controlled territory and later got a job at Poltava District Court.
The SSU exposed the offender and documented her criminal actions.
Based on the collected evidence, SSU investigators served her a notice of suspicion under Article 111.2 of the CCU (high treason committed under martial law).
The decision on removing the suspect from office and choosing custody as a measure of restraint is pending.
The investigation is underway.
The SSU Office in Zaporizhzhia region is investigating the offence under the procedural supervision of the regional Prosecutor’s Office.
