billions have dissappeared so this army psychiatrist must be one of the small fish that they feel they can sacrafice.

or worse yet: they did it fbi style and manufactured the criminal so that they can arrest him.

either way, it's having a serious impact on ukraine's ability to fight.

They nabbed him partially because it can be hailed as great success againt the corruption, but in reality it's just tip of the tip of the tip of entire iceberg, but the real reason was that what could psychiatrist even take the bribes for? Of course for excluding people from draft, which is a big no-no now.
