During the occupation of part of Kherson region, the former inspector of the Dar'yivka colony agreed to work for the invaders. After the de-occupation, he began serving in one of the district TCCs in Odesa region.

According to the State Bureau of Investigation, during the occupation of part of the Kherson region, the former colony inspector took a similar position with the invaders. He worked in the seized institution for the "new government" until the liberation of part of the region, and after the de-occupation decided to stay in the territory controlled by Ukraine. Subsequently, the man was mobilized and began serving in one of the district military commissariats of Odesa region, where he served calls to persons liable for military service. The man told his colleagues about his conscientious position and denied cooperation with the occupiers.

As a result of operational and investigative actions, SBI officers found documentation on the functioning of the colony during the occupation, interrogated witnesses and exposed the defector. The SBI, in cooperation with the SBU, detained him and served him a notice of suspicion of collaboration. The sanction of the article provides for punishment in the form of imprisonment for up to 15 years. The suspect has been detained, the issue of choosing a measure of restraint is being decided.

Earlier, SBI officers served a notice of suspicion to the Director of the Department of Civil Protection and Defense of the Kherson Regional Military Administration, who purchased low-quality clothing for the military. According to the investigation, the Kherson Regional State Administration announced a tender for the purchase of clothing for the military. This tender was won by the entrepreneurs chosen by the department official, who supplied low-quality clothing through collusion between the suppliers and the official. The businessmen bought cheap, low-quality clothing without proper certificates of compliance with the requirements of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine. The goods were only visually similar to military clothing. Thus, the state suffered losses of more than UAH 21 million.
