The Frankovsky District Court of Lviv sentenced the soldier who, four times arbitrarily left military service. For this he was sentenced to five years in prison. The verdict concerned contract soldier Alexander T. , repeatedly fled from the unit, explaining their actions with insufficient financing. This is evidenced by the verdict of the court, published in the judicial register.
Yes, Alexander t. escaped from a military unit from June 2023 to October 2024. He left the service for different periods - from several weeks to several months.. This led to the initiation of a criminal case on the fact of unauthorized care of the unit (SZF).
In court Alexander T. He said that during the completion of combat missions in the war zone was injured. After treatment and rehabilitation, when he returned to the unit, he learned that he had been removed from the staff, so he received only 615 hryvnia a month.
" Directions to the VLC did not give him, but did not include parts in the state. The command of the military unit claimed that no one would pay them, with the exception of stay in the war zone, ”the accused in the verdict quoted the words.
Based on this, Alexander claimed that he fled due to lack of sufficient financial resources, but his intentions to remain in the service were sincere. The prosecutor confirmed that after being wounded the soldier actually received only 615 hryvnia, which was one of the reasons for his escape from the unit. The court found that the command violated the constitutional rights of the accused by failing to provide adequate conditions of service. Judge Vasily Kuz, having studied all the facts of the case, took into account that Alexander T. actively contributed to the pre-trial investigation and himself returned to service after each escape. Based on the results of the trial, the court decided to appoint a soldier in the form of five years in prison. However, the decision can still be appealed, and until the verdict comes into force, the accused remains free. Let us remind you that in the Odessa region there was a trial of a man who refused to mobilize at the beginning of 2024. He explained his decision to his own “religiosity”, but in the courtroom he did not mention either prayer or 10 commandments, despite the fact that he called himself very zealous believers.
