A Ukrainian businessman, involved in the country’s controversial military draft enforcement, has been found dead near Odessa with gunshot wounds, local media reported on Sunday.
The victim, identified as car dealer Gennady Beybutyan by journalist Irina Grib, led a so-called volunteer group that worked closely with conscription officers in locating and apprehending potential evaders.
According to reports, Beybutyan’s group, the “Law Enforcement Assistance Unit,” has played a key role locally in Kiev’s aggressive conscription campaign.
Ukrainian media outlet Strana.ua reported that the group engaged in beating suspected evaders and smashing car windows in their attempts to stop vehicles for conscription checks
According to multiple sources, the group was involved in schemes where potential conscripts could bribe their way out of military service.
The “volunteers” were reportedly instrumental in identifying those willing to pay to avoid the front lines. The unit’s members were allegedly immune from conscription themselves. These entities competed for access to the lucrative corruption opportunities and conscription exemptions offered to their members.
