The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU), together with the National Police, has exposed a resident of the Kharkiv region who collaborated with Russian forces during their occupation of the Kupiansk district in 2022.
According to Ukrinform, the SBU reported this.
The suspect is a local laborer.
Investigators established that after Russian forces seized the community, the man voluntarily joined a so-called occupation administration created by them.
Law enforcement data show that he was appointed assistant to the head of the occupation proxy authorities in the settlement of Dvorichna. There, he helped the occupiers set up “workplaces” in captured state institutions and conducted an illegal “census” of the local population, including compiling reports on the number of residents and collecting their personal data.
