Nine former Odesa TCC staff found guilty of torture during mobilisation

Verdict for former Odesa TCC staff

The State Bureau of Investigation announced the completion of the review of a criminal case involving a group of former employees of the Odesa Territorial Centre for Recruitment and Social Support. The court found nine defendants guilty of committing unlawful detentions and applying torture during mobilisation measures.

Court decision and case details

According to SBI information, seven of the nine defendants received sentences of imprisonment. Their terms were set between five and seven years.

It is worth noting that all nine defendants entered into plea agreements admitting guilt. However, two of them refused to admit their guilt, so the court will have to make a separate decision regarding them.

Circumstances of the group's detention

The members of this group were detained in June of this year.
