According to operational data, one of the suspects is a Lviv student who was recruited by Russian special services through Telegram channels, where he was looking for opportunities to make “easy” money. He enlisted an unemployed acquaintance from Lviv to carry out the tasks.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The men were looking for people whose personal data could be used to register Starlink terminals. In this way, they fraudulently recruited 14 people and used their passport data to verify the devices in favor of the Russian Federation.<\/p>\n

After activating the terminals, the suspects gave the necessary details to the Russian curator, receiving money for it.<\/p>\n

Counterintelligence officers documented the activities of both men and detained them at their places of residence. During the searches, they seized the mobile phones with which they had maintained contact with the Russian representative.<\/p>\n

The SBU has now blocked all 14 illegally registered Starlink systems. Information about the possible registration of more than 40 satellite communication terminals by the defendants is also being checked.<\/p>\n

The detainees were informed of suspicion under Part 2 of Article 28, Part 1 of Article 111-2 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine – aiding and abetting an aggressor state, committed by a group of persons in prior conspiracy.<\/p>\n

The suspects are being held without bail. They face up to 12 years in prison with confiscation of property.<\/p>\n

In particular, the investigation is ongoing. Law enforcement officers are establishing all the circumstances of the crime. Comprehensive measures were carried out by counterintelligence officers and investigators of the SBU in the Lviv region under the procedural guidance of the regional prosecutor’s office.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
