In Kherson, the Security Service of Ukraine and the State Bureau of Investigation detained another employee who worked for the Russian occupiers during the temporary occupation of the city. The traitor turned out to be the junior inspector of the Kherson remand prison, who supported the aggressor from the beginning of the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine.
For this, he was "appointed" as a guard in the Russian torture chamber, which the enemy had set up in the building of the captured pre-trial detention center.
While in the "post", the traitor guarded the cells in which the occupiers imprisoned local residents en masse. Most of the victims were among the participants of the resistance movement in the southern region of Ukraine. In addition, the person involved promoted his acquaintances to join the occupation institution of the Russian Federation, promising potential candidates a "salary" in rubles and loyal treatment from the aggressor.
After the liberation of Kherson, the perpetrator tried to avoid justice and for this purpose constantly changed his place of residence.
Law enforcement officers located the traitor and detained him. During the search, a mobile phone with evidence of his crimes was seized from the suspect.
