The head of the Zvenyhorodka District Military Medical Commission and the Specialised Military Medical Commission in the Cherkasy region was dismissed following reports that a 54-year-old resident of Zvenyhorodka, who was due to undergo a military medical examination in Uman, had suffered serious injuries. According to Ombudsman Dmytro Lubinets, the man is in intensive care, and the Specialised Prosecutor\u2019s Office for Defence Affairs of the Central Region is investigating the circumstances of the case.<\/p>\n
Briefly about the main points<\/strong><\/p>\n According to the victim, whilst staying in the Zvenyhorod District TCC<\/a> and his partner beat him and poured cold water over him. The man was to be taken to Uman to undergo VLC<\/a>, but he eventually ended up on the operating table.<\/p>\n Doctors diagnosed him with multiple rib fractures, a punctured lung and a pneumothorax. \u00abIn 54 years, I have never encountered such humiliating treatment and abuse,\u00bb the man was quoted as saying Lubinets<\/strong>.<\/p>\n According to Lubinets, following the publicity, the military command dismissed the head of the district recruitment centre from his post. The Ombudsman contacted the Cherkasy Regional Department of the Military Law Enforcement Service and the Regional Headquarters of the National Police.<\/p>\n He called on the police to identify those who may have been directly involved in the incident, to find out who might have witnessed it, and to check whether anyone had attempted to conceal the circumstances of the incident.<\/p>\n The case is being handled by the Specialised Prosecutor\u2019s Office for Defence Matters in the Central Region. Proceedings have been initiated under Part 1 of Article 122 of the Criminal Code \u2014 intentional bodily harm of moderate severity \u2014 and Part 1 of Article 146 \u2014 unlawful deprivation of liberty or abduction.<\/p>\n A pre-trial investigation is currently underway. The investigation must establish exactly who inflicted the injuries on the man, the circumstances under which this occurred, and whether any officials from the TCC were involved.<\/p>\n In August, Lubinets reported at least seven complaints regarding possible human rights violations by staff at this temporary detention centre within the space of a week. The complaints concerned alleged forceful detentions, the use of handcuffs, threats and coercion to undergo a medical examination.<\/p>\n Each of these cases requires a separate legal assessment.<\/p>\n The State Bureau of Investigations is conducting a nationwide operation called \u00abFair Conscription\u00bb, as part of which it is investigating possible abuses of authority, beatings and torture of conscripts at military recruitment centres. In July, investigations took place at more than 100 recruitment centres across Ukraine.<\/p>\n As of the evening of 30 September, it is known that a personnel decision has been taken regarding the head of the department in the Cherkasy region and that criminal proceedings have been opened.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In the Cherkasy region, the head of the Zvenyhorod Territorial Centre for Social Services has been dismissed following a man\u2019s injury.
