The mayor of Boryslav confirmed he was fined for failing to meet mobilization targets and plans to appeal the decision.

He mentioned this in a comment to hromadske.

“I have submitted my objections. I do not agree with this protocol and decision. Accordingly, I am preparing a submission to the court; I will appeal. I believe the court will clarify everything,” noted Yavorsky.

The mayor did not specify what the documents were about, citing that it was “information for official use only.”

When asked if there had been instances of fines imposed on other local officials, he responded: “I don’t recall anything like that happening recently.”

What happened?

The mayor of Drohobych, Taras Kuchma, told ZAXID.NET and later commented to hromadske that on January 22, he was summoned to the local TCC, but he could not attend because that day the body of a deceased soldier was being returned to the city, and he had other official events to attend.

As a result, the head of the territorial recruitment and social support center, according to the mayor, sent a letter to the police regarding the forced delivery of Kuchma. However, this was unnecessary, as the mayor arrived on his own. There, he was informed about the drafting of a protocol for holding him accountable for failing to fulfill mobilization tasks, with a fine of 36 thousand hryvnias imposed for this.

According to Taras Kuchma, similar decisions were issued to the mayors of other towns in the Lviv region — Truskavets, Skhidnytsia, Boryslav, and Medenychi — and all will be appealing them.
