An anti-corruption commissioner of one of the state enterprises of Odesa region was detained in Dobroslav. He and his accomplice were extorting a bribe from a man liable for military service.
This was reported by the Odesa Regional Prosecutor's Office.
According to the investigation, the anti-corruption activist and his accomplice offered the man liable for military service to "resolve the issue" of exemption from service in the Armed Forces. For their "services," they asked for $17,000, with $7,000 received as the first tranche.

In return for this money, the criminals promised to issue fictitious documentation through their doctors' acquaintances, which would lead to a decision by the MSEC to declare the soldier unfit for service and grant him the status of a person with a second-group disability.
For several months, the offenders communicated with the serviceman, demanding a bribe and threatening to violate his rights in case of refusal.
