Beating a conscript during a medical examination: an official of the TCC in Prykarpattia was informed of the suspicion

According to the investigation, on the evening of November 11, the conscript was taken to the territorial recruitment and social support center to clarify military registration data. After that, he, along with other citizens, was sent to a local hospital for a military medical commission.

During the medical examination, the man refused to undergo fluorography. In response, the deputy head of the recruitment center lost his temper and began to beat him. He struck the victim at least five times, specifically targeting the groin area. According to the investigation, these blows were intentional and deliberate. As a result of these unlawful actions, the victim sustained serious bodily injuries that necessitated the surgical removal of one of his organs (orchiectomy).

Under the procedural guidance of the Ivano-Frankivsk Specialized Prosecutor's Office in the field of defense of the Western region, the serviceman has been notified of suspicion of exceeding authority in a state of martial law, which caused serious consequences (part 5 of Article 426-1 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).

At the request of the prosecutors, the court has chosen a preventive measure for the lieutenant colonel in the form of detention without the right to bail.

Currently, information regarding the possible involvement of other individuals, including law enforcement agencies, in the unlawful actions is being verified.

For the alleged criminal offense, the suspect faces up to 12 years of imprisonment.

The pre-trial investigation is being conducted by the Territorial Department of the State Bureau of Investigation in Lviv.

Note: according to Article 62 of the Constitution of Ukraine, a person is presumed innocent of committing a crime and cannot be subjected to criminal punishment until their guilt is proven in a lawful manner and established by a court verdict.
