Following SSU’s investigation, court issues first guilty verdict against judge who deports Crimeans from temporarily occupied peninsula
The SSU jointly with the National Police investigators have collected irrefutable evidence against the occupation ‘judge’ who facilitates forced deportation of Crimeans from the temporarily captured peninsula.
Since 2014, she has made ‘court’ decisions on forced deportation of over 20 local residents from the Crimea.
Following the investigation, the court sentenced the ‘official’ to 10 years in prison.
The convicted offender is a former Ukrainian judge who after the occupation of the peninsula voluntarily cooperated with the russian invaders.
For this, the enemy appointed her the head of the so-called ‘Armyansk City Court of the Republic of Crimea’.
In this ‘position’, the woman has made illegal decisions to deport civilians for supposedly ‘not having documents’ and not following the ‘rules of stay’ in the occupied territory.
Based on the evidence collected by the SSU, the court found the accused guilty under Article 438.1 of the CCU (violation of laws and customs of war).
The sentence will start on the day the convict is arrested.
The investigation was carried out under the procedural supervision of the Prosecutor’s Office of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and Sevastopol city.
