The Security Service of Ukraine has identified all collaborators who joined the so-called “Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation” controlled by the occupiers in the Kherson region, SBU spokesman Artem Degtyarenko said.. So, 26 representatives of the “regional department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs” have already reported suspicion. Of these, 14 are ex-employees of the National Police.

“The “main department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Kherson region” created by the occupiers performs the tasks of suppressing resistance and intimidating residents of the temporarily occupied areas. This happens through mass repression, persecution and illegal detention of citizens.. For this, in particular, the invaders resumed the activities of the regional police unit "

Occupants and traitors use psychological pressure, violence and death threats against the victims. There have also been cases of kidnapping and torture of people..

In addition, collaborators under the leadership of the Russian special services recruit “like-minded people”.

“In the course of operational actions, the SBU officers collected all the constituent data for each traitor, documented the criminal activity and established their places of residence and travel routes,” Dekhtyarenko added..
