In the course of stabilization activities in the liberated areas of Donetsk region, the SSU exposed another collaborator.

The enemy accomplice is a former gas distribution network foreman from Lyman. During temporary occupation, he supported russian invaders and collaborated with them.

For this, the man was appointed chief of the local ‘branch of DNR’s Donbasgaz’ established by the aggressor.

After ‘appointment’, he immediately began organizing heating of the captured buildings where the russian occupation troops were ‘cantoned’.

Having arranged this, the ‘branch chief’ left the homes of local residents without any heating.

After Lyman’s liberation, the collaborator tried to flee to the temporarily occupied Yenakiyevo. However, the SSU timely identified and detained the suspect.

SSU investigators have notified the detainee of suspicion of collaboration (Article 111-1.4 of the CCU).

Court is to decide on custody as a measure of restraint. The investigation is underway.

The SSU Office in Donetsk and Luhansk regions exposed the offender jointly with the State Border Guard Service under the procedural supervision of Donetsk Region Prosecutor’s Office.
