Three "heads" of the structural units of the occupation administration of Kherson have been served with a notice of suspicion.

This was reported by the press service of the Kherson Regional Prosecutor's Office.

The post says that under the procedural guidance of the Kherson District Prosecutor's Office, three local residents were served in absentia with a notice of suspicion of collaboration. They are accused of voluntarily holding a position in an illegal authority established in the temporarily occupied territory (Part 5 of Article 111-1 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).

According to the investigation, in 2022, all of them headed the structural units of the occupation administration of Kherson. In April of that year, the man became the "head of the Human Resources Department", while another suspect, his daughter-in-law, headed the "department of financial sectors of the city's life support" in June. Yet another suspect became the head of the "department of record keeping". In their positions, the suspects contribute to the legalization of the occupation regime in the illegally created government and make decisions on local issues.

According to the investigation, in 2022, the suspect headed the "Department of Labor and Social Policy" of the Kherson City District, which was part of the so-called "Ministry of Labor and Social Policy". In his pseudo-position, he organized the activities of the "department" and its subordinate employees, took measures to provide material resources, received citizens for consultations and applications for social benefits, etc.

It was also reported that the so-called "Deputy Minister of Health of Kherson region" was sentenced to 10 years in prison.
