In Kyiv, the founder of a charitable organization was tried for organizing illegal exit abroad of conscripts for $12,000
In Kyiv, the court found a man guilty who organized illegal schemes for leaving the country for money, hiding behind the activities of a charitable organization. He was sentenced as the founder of the charitable organization, accused of organizing the illegal transfer of a conscript across the state border of Ukraine. This was reported by the Kyiv City Prosecutor's Office.
Prosecutors proved in court that in August 2023, the man met a Kyiv resident who was looking for an opportunity to leave the country to visit his mother. The accused assured him that he could help with the exit through his charitable foundation. For this "service," he initially received $7,000, which was formalized as a charitable donation supposedly for the purchase of a Mavic 3T drone for the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
When organizing the exit officially through the charitable organization failed, the founder of the foundation offered another option — illegal border crossing outside checkpoints in Zakarpattia region. He valued this route at $12,000 and asked the client to pay an additional $5,000.
The court sentenced him to 7 years in prison with confiscation of property.
