Ternopil’s district court has sentenced Ivanovo governor Stanislav Voskresensky in absentia to eight years in prison and ordered the confiscation of his property. The reported verdict is a new Ukrainian judicial step against a Russian regional official whom the SBU says the court found guilty of financially and materially supporting occupation forces.
Ukrinform, citing the Ternopil regional branch of Ukraine’s Security Service, reported that Voskresensky was found guilty under Part 3 of Article 110-2 of Ukraine’s Criminal Code. The SBU said a regional fund was created on his initiative to collect money for Russian occupation forces. It also said that, with his assistance, more than 300 tonnes of materiel and equipment were transferred, including drones, communications equipment, generators, field gear and vehicles.
Those details are the Ukrainian investigators’ account relayed by the SBU. The material supplied does not include the full judgment, a case number, information on any appeal, or a response from Voskresensky, his defence or Russian authorities. Still, Ukrinform reported that the court issued a guilty verdict and sentence against him.
The announcement of the sentence does not mean Voskresensky has begun serving it. The SBU’s regional branch said the case was heard through special in-absentia proceedings because he is in Russia. It said he has been placed on a wanted list and subjected to personal sanctions, and that the prison term will begin to run from the date of his detention. On the account provided by the SBU, detention is the step that would start the prison term.
