Volyn TCC Chief Caught Selling Military Exemptions for $7,000

Original version ·

Because nothing screams 'patriotic duty' quite like running a flat-rate discount on dodging it.

The head of one of the district recruitment offices in the Volyn region decided to run a little side hustle. The price of peace of mind? A neat $7,000. For this modest sum, he promised to secure a nice, official stamp declaring someone completely unfit for military service.

But the scheme collapsed spectacularly when law enforcement crashed the party right during the cash handover. Now, instead of enjoying his retirement fund, the chief is facing a formal notice of suspicion and some very awkward questions.

One has to wonder if he offered a loyalty program for friends and family.
