ukraine - Ukraine arrests head psychiatrist of the military on corruption charges, luxury apartment filled with banknotes.

Ukrainian Military Psychiatrist Arrested for Corruption

Ukraine has arrested the head psychiatrist of the military on suspicion of corruption. The Ukrainian secret service reported that the psychiatrist was part of a committee that assessed individuals for military service. The accused, Oleh Druz, allegedly rejected mobilized troops in exchange for bribes, totaling over a million dollars. Authorities uncovered multiple undisclosed assets, including apartments and cash. The psychiatrist faces a potential ten-year prison sentence.

Past Wrongdoings and Current Arrest

Prior to this case, Druz had faced suspension in 2017 for failing to register his vehicles and properties. Journalist Yurii Nokolov criticized Druz's return to corrupt practices after his suspension. Nokolov highlighted the similarities between Druz's 2017 arrest and his recent apprehension, suggesting a lack of accountability for corrupt officials within Ukraine.

Corruption in the Ukrainian Military

Nokolov's observations reflect the prevalent issue of corruption in the Ukrainian military. Recent scandals involving defense ministry officials and weapon suppliers further underline the pervasive nature of fraud within the system. Despite promises from President Volodimir Zelenski to tackle corruption, Ukraine still struggles to effectively address the problem. The country's ranking on Transparency International's corruption index remains poor, potentially hindering its EU accession process due to stringent anti-corruption requirements.
