The court seized an 11-hectare land plot located in Podil district of Odesa region on the banks of the Southern Bug River.

This was reported by the press service of the State Ecological Inspectorate of the Southwestern District.

The fact is that state environmental inspectors discovered the fact of unauthorized use of this land by a local resident. The inspection materials were forwarded to the prosecutor's office. As a result of the investigation, law enforcement officers identified the offender - a local resident who plowed up more than 11 hectares of land belonging to the Savranska community in the fall of 2023 without any permits and sowed it with winter wheat.

According to the environmental inspection, the environmental damage amounted to over UAH 360 thousand. Therefore, the farmer was notified of suspicion under Part 2 of Article 197-1 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. He faces up to 2 years in prison.

However, he may be able to get off with a fine, for example, in May, the Tarutino District Court of Odesa Oblast found a Sarata native guilty of illegal possession of the surface layer of water fund lands on a particularly large scale and fined him UAH 17,000. The man illegally dug a pond near the Chiligider River and filled it with its waters.

Earlier, a farmer from Izmail district in Odesa region was accused of unauthorized seizure of a land plot near Lake Katlabukh. The agronomist was interested in the land plot. He decided to cultivate and plant it without having any permits for the land.

Earlier, the police also served a notice of suspicion to a resident of Bolhradskyi district, Odesa region, of unauthorized occupation of a land plot in a protected zone
