Law enforcers have detained former employees of a penal colony in Kherson Region who worked with the occupiers and were given fake "positions" for doing so.



This was reported by the Prosecutor-General's Office.

According to the investigation, three former employees of the state-run Daria penal colony No 10 agreed to work for the occupants.

The spouses of the junior inspectors of the 1st category of the security department and their colleague were employed in similar positions in the illegally created body - the so-called "Department of the Correctional Service in Kherson region", - reported in the Prosecutor's Office.

During searches in the homes of the suspects, law enforcers seized evidence of cooperation with the enemy - a signed oath form of a Russian citizen, passes, service IDs, and propaganda leaflets calling for employment in the occupation body.

Under the procedural guidance of the Kherson regional prosecutor's office, all three were informed of suspicion of treason (part 2 of Article 111 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).
