SBU operatives exposed a resident of Mykolaiv who was leaking Ukrainian military positions to the enemy. The court found him guilty of high treason and sentenced him to 9 years in prison.
This was reported by the press service of the Prosecutor General's Office.
A resident of Mykolaiv was sentenced to 9 years in prison for passing information about the Ukrainian military and important infrastructure to the enemy. The sentence was handed down by a court following a public prosecution by the Mykolaiv Regional Prosecutor's Office.
According to the case file, the man was found guilty of illegally disseminating information about the movement and location of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and other military formations under martial law (Part 3 of Article 114-2 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).
The investigation established that in September 2024, a resident of Mykolaiv, who actively followed pro-Russian Telegram channels, attracted the attention of a Russian special services officer. After contacting him, the man agreed to cooperate with the enemy.
Following instructions, he secretly filmed the location of Ukrainian Defense Forces units and infrastructure facilities in Mykolaiv that could be of interest to the occupier on his cell phone. He sent the collected information via the Telegram messenger in the form of texts and screenshots from Google Maps.
The defendant spent the entire time of the pre-trial investigation in custody.
Also in Mykolaiv, a man suspected of collaborating with Russian special services will stand trial. According to the SBU, he was passing data on the movement of Ukrainian troops in the Kherson sector to the occupiers. The traitor was exposed by counterintelligence and faces life imprisonment for high treason.
In addition, in May, law enforcement officers exposed a Russian agent network operating in southern Ukraine. Its members passed information about military facilities and important infrastructure to the enemy. Russia used the collected data for missile and drone strikes. Part of this network operated directly in Mykolaiv: spies collected information about the bases of Ukrainian armed forces units, routes of military equipment, repair sites and locations for the distribution of humanitarian aid.
