In the city of Sambir in Lviv region, the court issued a sentence to a local resident who refused to receive a "combat" summons and mobilize. The man explained his refusal to the problems with vision and fracture of the thigh, but was found suitable for service.
According to the decision of the Sambir City Court, he received three years of imprisonment for evasion of mobilization, although he could still appeal.
As stated in the case file, the man first appeared in the Tax Code in April 2024, where he was sent for additional medical examination to the optometrist and traumatologist. However, he never had a survey. In June, he was re-sent to the military enlistment office, where he was again conducted by the Military Medical Commission and recognized as suitable for service. He was handed a summons with the time and place of arrival to the military unit, but he refused.
Despite the fact that the man signed a conclusion about his suitability for service, he refused to receive the summons, explaining it with health problems. The employees of the Tax Code called law enforcement officers who recorded his refusal.
In September 2024, he underwent a re-inspection at the Regional Military Medical Commission, where he provided extracts and X-ray, which confirmed his preliminary fracture of the thigh. However, it was again recognized as suitable for service. The man did not challenge the conclusions of the VLK and received a warning about the responsibility for evading mobilization.
The court acknowledged that his guilt was fully proven by the pre -trial investigation materials. Considering that he had no criminal record and committed a miserable crime, the court did not establish circumstances that could mitigate or burden it. He was finally sentenced to three years in prison.
The court's decision has not entered into force - the convicted person has the right to appeal.
