Odesa resident sentenced to five years for publishing information about TCC patrols

The Peresypskyi District Court of Odesa found a local resident guilty of obstructing the activities of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and sentenced him to five years in prison.

However, as noted in the court's verdict, his actual sentence was commuted to probation for two years.

According to the case file, in early January 2024, the convict disseminated information about the dates and places where military personnel of district territorial centers for recruitment and social support would hold events to notify human mobilization resources in order to facilitate the evasion of mobilization by Ukrainian citizens.

The man reported information about the places where he saw the alert groups via text messages using the Telegram channel. At the trial, the accused pleaded guilty in full. He explained that he published these messages because he considered the actions of the TCC employees to be unlawful.
