In the Kharkiv region, an elderly woman passed information about the locations of Ukrainian soldiers to the Russian occupiers. She denied her guilt in court.
This is stated in the court verdict published in the Unified State Register of Court Decisions.
Case Details
The court documents indicate that a 64-year-old resident of the village of Savyntsi, Izyum district, began to cooperate with the Russians after the de-occupation. She received a message on Telegram from a stranger who, knowing about the woman's problems, promised to help with the treatment of her granddaughter in Moscow in exchange for information about the Ukrainian military.
The woman, well-oriented in the area, recorded the location of the military, the number of equipment and memorized the markings on the cars. She transmitted the information via Telegram, sending maps and diagrams drawn by herself. The occupiers used this data to plan their actions.
“Hello, today I just recently observed a caravan consisting of two UN cars. The first and last were three large, covered, very heavy cars, they moved slowly and rattled. The caravan proceeded towards the former feedlot or fattening farm, there is nowhere else for them to go. The live squad was updated. There were very few of them. Probably many cars drove by at night and today went to the side of the raisin. I don't know how to put it all together. was stated in one of the woman's messages.
In court, the woman pleaded not guilty, claiming that she had fabricated all the information, but her claims were refuted by evidence.
Court's decision
The court classified the woman's actions under the article on unauthorized dissemination of information about the movement of the Armed Forces of Ukraine under martial law. Given her age, the woman was sentenced to six years in prison.
