A reserve officer was acquitted of evading mobilization. The Voznesensk District Court of Zaporizhzhia decided to leave him unpunished as his guilt under Article 336 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine was not proven. According to 'Glavkom' and tsn.ua, the court concluded that procedures during mobilization were violated.
Arguments of the Verdict

As a result, the court concluded that there was no composition of a criminal offense in the actions of the accused. Serious violations were also found during the draft and delivery to the military medical commission.
Court Conclusion
After careful consideration of the case, the court concluded that the accused did not commit a crime and was in accordance with the requirements of the law. Violations of mobilization procedures confirmed his exoneration in the verdict.
