SBU detains TCC member over $16,000 bribe

Security Service of Ukraine officers arrested a serviceman from the security platoon of the Vinnytsia District Territorial Centre for Conscription and Social Support for receiving a bribe of $16,000.

Conscription notice fraud

According to the investigation, in December 2024, the serviceman offered one of the citizens subject to military service signed but unfilled conscription notice forms in exchange for money. These documents were allegedly intended to create the appearance of official summons to the Territorial Centre for Conscription and Social Support, with the aim of obtaining a "mobilisation deferment" in the future.

The citizen agreed to the proposal and reported the situation to law enforcement agencies, after which he continued to act under their control. The serviceman, having received the agreed amount, handed him four unfilled conscription notice forms.

Evasion of mobilisation

In addition, the detainee offered to help four other citizens subject to military service evade mobilisation for a similar sum, using the same scheme.

Arrest and preventive measures

The suspect was detained at the moment he received the agreed sum. The court selected detention as the preventive measure for the serviceman, with the possibility of posting bail in the amount of 908,400 hryvnias.
