A former head of the Odesa military recruitment center will face trial after being caught forging his medical records to dodge service and spend time vacationing in the Seychelles and Spain.

According to the investigation, the officer  whose name is not revealed failed to report for duty on December 2, 2022, and continued to evade his service obligations for two weeks. When questioned about his no-show, he claimed to be ill and provided a fake medical certificate claiming he was receiving treatment in a hospital.

On December 19, 2022, he went even further making the military unit’s doctor issue a discharge summary from a hospital that recommended a medical treatment abroad.

Investigation though found that the officer had taken his family on a vacation to the Seychelles and Spain.

The former military officer is now in custody, awaiting trial.
