Sentence for former head of military medical commission

The court has sentenced Viktor Luhin, who previously held the position of head of the Chernihiv Regional Military Medical Commission. He was sentenced to 2 years and 9 months of imprisonment. The court established that the suspect participated in a scheme to evade mobilisation, which operated between 2022 and 2024.

Mechanism of illegal activity

According to the materials of the criminal case, the perpetrators issued false diagnoses and medical certificates to persons subject to military service, stating that they were unfit for military service. Such documents allowed citizens to legally deregister from military records and freely leave Ukraine.

Sentencing circumstances and additional sanctions

Viktor Luhin pleaded guilty and reached a plea bargain with the prosecutor. In addition to the main punishment, he paid 300,000 hryvnia for the needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

In addition, the perpetrator is banned from engaging in activities related to working in military medical commissions for three years. The court also ordered the confiscation of his personal property.
