Lawyers stop mobilized priest from being sent to assault units
Following a repeat medical examination by the Military Medical Commission (MMC), the rector of the UOC Intercession Church in Kramatorsk was assigned to support units.
Archpriest Oleh Kruchinin, rector of the Intercession Church in Kramatorsk, has undergone a repeat medical examination by the Military Medical Commission, which found him unfit for service in assault and combat units, reports the Charitable Foundation "Freedom of Conscience".
The Military Medical Commission determined that the cleric is fit for service in military support units and other rear-area units. A repeat medical examination was secured thanks to a complaint filed by UOC lawyers and human rights assistance.
Currently, lawyers continue to provide legal support to the clergyman and are accompanying the process of his official transfer to a support unit.
Recall that TRC officers detained Archpriest Oleh Kruchinin in Kramatorsk and took him to the Military Medical Commission in Kharkiv. Although doctors recorded three illnesses in the priest, he was not granted a deferment and was sent to a training center in the Zhytomyr region.
Earlier, the UOJ reported that in Kryvyi Rih, a UOC priest raising a disabled child was mobilized.
