The SSU has uncovered another two collaborators who helped russia at the beginning of the full-scale war.

One of them is an unemployed woman from Lymanets village on the right bank of Kherson region, who headed the local occupation administration.

In this ‘position’, she organized the cantonment of russian soldiers in the homes of fellow villagers who had left the occupied area. In addition to living in these premises, the ruscists arranged weapons and ammunition depots there.

The ‘official’ also took part in the organization of russia’s sham referendum on the territory of the captured community.

With her assistance, the invaders formed occupation ‘election commissions’, and the collaborator herself called on her fellow villagers to ‘vote for the accession’ of the region to russia.

The suspect is in custody. Her actions are classified under Article 111-1.5 of the CCU (collaboration). The crime is punishable by up to 10 years in prison with confiscation of property.

The second perpetrator is an employee of a post office in Kharkiv, who lived in Kupiansk before the outbreak of full-scale war. After the seizure of the town, the woman joined the occupation ‘pension fund’ and provided personal data of local residents to the invaders.

The enemy planned to use the information to falsify the fake referendum that was being prepared in the occupied territories at the time.

After Kupiansk’s liberation, she fled to Kharkiv, hoping to evade justice.

The SSU found her and notified her of suspicion under Article 111-1.2 of the CCU (collaboration).

The operations were carried out by the SSU Offices in Kherson and Kharkiv regions under the procedural supervision of the Prosecutor’s Office.
