The chairman of the medical commission caught receiving a bribe
The chairman of the medical commission in Dobropillya, Donetsk region, was caught receiving a bribe of 1,000 dollars. This was reported by the Donetsk regional prosecutor’s office.
A man with a disability of the third group turned to a medical institution to undergo a military medical examination. Some of the doctors found him fit for military service, but for a final decision, he turned to the chairman of the commission, who is a surgeon at the institution.
The surgeon promised to declare the man unfit for service and remove him from the list of military personnel in exchange for «services» totaling 1,000 dollars.
On May 16, the official was detained while receiving a bribe of 40,000 hryvnias (approximately 1,500 dollars). The issue of announcing suspicion to him and choosing a preventive measure is being resolved.
