After the occupation of the peninsula, former judges of the Chornomorsk District and Economic Courts of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea betrayed their oath of allegiance to the Ukrainian people and joined the enemy.
According to the prosecutor's office, one of the judges took a position in the "Arbitration Court of the Republic of Crimea" and the other in the "Black Sea District Court of the Republic of Crimea". In their positions, they administered "justice" on behalf of the aggressor state. By their actions and decisions, the convicts contributed to the establishment and strengthening of the occupation judiciary on the peninsula, as well as assisted representatives of the Russian Federation in conducting subversive activities against Ukraine.
In court, prosecutors proved that after the occupation of the peninsula, the convicts betrayed their oath of allegiance to the Ukrainian people and joined the enemy. Therefore, under the public prosecution of the Prosecutor's Office of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and Sevastopol, former judges of the Chornomorsk District and Economic Courts of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea were sentenced in absentia. They were found guilty of committing high treason and sentenced to 12 and 13 years of imprisonment respectively.
Earlier, four former judges from Crimea, who had joined the enemy, were sentenced in absentia under public prosecution by the autonomy's prosecutor's office. They were found guilty of treason and sentenced to 13 years in prison with confiscation of property.
Also, an occupation judge who had been prosecuting Ukrainians in Crimea was sentenced to 13 years in prison for treason.
Ukraine continues to impose sanctions against traitors in Crimea, which is an important tool in the struggle to restore justice and ensure respect for human rights. In line with the new decision of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine, enacted by the Presidential Decree, 11 so-called judges were added to the list of persons subject to sanctions.
