Details of the case

'The footage shows how people in uniform use force against men with their hands bound who do not resist at all. One of the bystanders lifts the detainee by the legs and throws him to the ground', - the message says.

Representatives of the State Bureau of Investigations stated that after a thorough review of the situation appropriate legal action will be taken regarding the individuals depicted in the video. If signs of a crime are found, appropriate measures will be taken, including the initiation of a criminal proceeding.

It is worth noting that the former deputy head of the Odesa Regional Recruitment Center, Denys Halushko, has found himself at the center of an anti-corruption scandal. The National Agency for Corruption Prevention found that his declaration for 2023 is missing information about property worth more than UAH 7.3 million.

In Kyiv, a woman also offered a conscript to 'solve' the issue with the territorial recruitment center for a fee. For such actions, she faces up to eight years in prison with confiscation of property.
