Officer from Vinnytsia region faces up to 10 years for bribery

In Vinnytsia region, a commander of a support company of a military unit was detained for bribery. According to police, the woman set up a scheme for illegal enrichment, receiving money from subordinates in exchange for the opportunity to avoid service.

Law enforcement officers found that a 38-year-old officer was taking money from servicemen for permission to leave the unit without any legal grounds. She would issue documents for dismissal for a certain number of days and release subordinates. She received payment both on her personal bank card and in cash.

The official was detained on September 2 immediately after an illegal benefit was credited to her account. During searches of her place of work and residence, investigators seized mobile phones, computer equipment, money, and draft notes that could confirm corrupt actions.

The woman was informed of suspicion under Part 3 of Article 368 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine — receiving unlawful benefit by an official. This article provides for a penalty of up to 10 years of imprisonment with confiscation of property and a ban on holding certain positions for a term of up to three years. The court has already removed the officer from her position and chosen a preventive measure.

Law enforcement officials emphasize that such schemes undermine discipline and harm the country's defense capabilities.
