Former Lyceum Director to Be Tried for Collaborating with Occupiers

A former lyceum director who collaborated with Russians during the occupation will be tried in Kherson region.

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

According to the investigation, during the occupation of the Kakhovka district, the woman headed an illegally created school, which the invaders opened on the basis of the seized Rubanivska school.

She helped to implement Russian educational standards, organized the teaching of disciplines in Russian and even introduced an access control regime in the institution with the participation of the Russian military.

In addition, the ex-director forced students and staff to sing the anthem of the aggressor country every day and participated in propaganda activities.

Now the woman faces liability for collaboration (Part 3 of Article 111-1 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine). The prosecutor's office has already submitted the indictment to the court.

In the temporarily occupied territory of the Kherson region, the Russian invaders announced their intention to conduct a"record" sowing campaign, planning to sow about a million hectares.

The court sentenced two collaborators from Kherson region to 15 years in prison for working for the Russians.

Recently, law enforcement officers served suspicion notices to two residents of Kherson who worked for the enemy in a "police station" during the occupation of the city. They are a 37-year-old woman and a 48-year-old man suspected of voluntarily taking up positions in the illegally created "Suvorov City Police" that operated under the control of the invaders.

He was found guilty of committing serious criminal offenses, including treason and collaboration. The accused is a native of Illinka village, Kakhovka district, Kherson region, a resident of Fedorivka village, Dariivka community.
