In 2024, 64 medical and social expert commissions (MSEC) officials were suspected of committing crimes.
This was announced by the head of the Security Service of Ukraine (SSU), Vasyl Maliuk, following the results of the NSDC meeting.
"In 2024, according to the materials of the SSU, 64 MSEC officials were suspected of committing crimes, and another 9 people have already been convicted. In addition, at the initiative of the Ukrainian special service, 4,106 conclusions about disability, which were assigned on the basis of fictitious documents, were canceled," the message says.
So, among other things, the Security Service of Ukraine exposed and stopped the activities of 8 organized criminal groups, which included representatives of MSECs in different regions of Ukraine.
In particular, in the Kharkiv Region:
An organized criminal group of 13 members of the regional MSEC was neutralized. During the searches, more than USD 650,000 were seized from them.
Officials sold evaders fake medical certificates to remove them from military registration due to their health status.
In the Rivne Region:
Another 29 representatives of local MSECs and medical advisory commissions, who helped those liable for military service evade mobilization, were exposed. For money, the defendants prepared fictitious medical histories for their clients, followed by assignment of disability groups.
In this way, officials received more than USD 350,000 in "profit".
In Mykolaiv:
The head of the regional MSEC was exposed, in which more than USD 450,000, a collection of gold products and three undeclared apartments in Odesa were found. In order to hide these fortunes, the official "transferred" most of the property to her son, a medical university student, who has russian citizenship.
In the Zakarpattia Region:
The head of the regional MSEC and three of his accomplices were exposed, who, for various sums of bribes, issued disability to evaders for removal from military registration. The involvement of the head of the regional MSEC in the functioning of the criminal scheme is being checked.
In addition, the SSU checks the facts of illegal receipt of disability by individual officials: today these checks cover almost 2,400 such persons.
It will be recalled that in October, journalists showed the incomes declared by the heads of regional centers of MSEC.
In addition, the Ministry of Health canceled the disability of 74 persons liable for military service established by the Khmelnytskyi MSEC.
