A court in the Khmelnytskyi region has sentenced a 57-year-old resident of Volochysk, who intentionally drove his vehicle into a soldier from the Territorial Center for Recruitment and Social Support (TCK and SP) during a document check. According to the Office of the Prosecutor General of Ukraine, as reported by RBC-Ukraine, the man has been sentenced to seven years in prison. ### Circumstances of the Incident According to case files, the incident occurred in April 2026 in Volochysk. Police officers stopped a car driven by the 57-year-old local resident. During the check, TCK and SP soldiers discovered that the driver had violated military registration rules and informed him accordingly. According to the prosecution, while trying to avoid further proceedings, the man suddenly accelerated, despite the soldier standing directly in front of the car. ### Hitting and Carrying on the Hood As a result of the impact, the victim ended up on the car's hood. The driver did not stop and drove the soldier for approximately 150 meters. During one of the maneuvers, the victim fell onto the road. The prosecutor's office emphasizes that the driver's actions were intentional: he was aware that a person was in front of the vehicle and continued driving regardless. ### Consequences for the Victim The soldier sustained severe head injuries, including skull fractures and brain contusions. According to the prosecutor's office, he underwent a series of surgeries and received extensive medical treatment. These circumstances were among the key factors in the court's sentencing decision. ### Court Proceedings and Verdict In court, the defendant denied his guilt in intentionally causing injuries. However, according to the Office of the Prosecutor General, prosecutors proved his involvement through witness testimony, video evidence, and expert reports. The court found the man guilty under Part 3 of Article 350 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine and imposed a seven-year prison sentence. Additionally, he was ordered to pay nearly 450,000 hryvnias in compensation for material and moral damages. Until the verdict comes into legal force, the defendant will remain in custody without the right to bail. ### Context: High-Profile Incidents Involving TCKs The sentence is part of a series of high-profile incidents related to the activities of territorial recruitment centers, which periodically cause significant public concern in Ukraine. Recently, it was reported that a man was found dead in the Cherkasy region after disappearing in a TCK, prompting the Ombudsman for Human Rights to demand a thorough investigation. Amid such cases, government agencies have clarified the clear boundaries of the powers of these departments: the Ministry of Defense has explained the status and tasks of TCKs during martial law, which are related to military registration and conscription. ## Fact-Check & Sources - [Провез на капоте 150 метров: в Хмельницкой области осудили водителя за нападение на военного ТЦК](https://www.rbc.ua/ukr/news/proviz-kapoti-150-metriv-hmelnichchini-zasudili-1794503479.html) - Source; Office of Prosecutor General details: 7 years, ~150 m, Part 3 Art. 350, ~450k UAH compensation, April 2026 incident in Volochysk. - [Провез военного ТЦК на капоте автомобиля: мужчину приговорили к 7 годам лишения свободы на ...](https://censor.net/ru/news/4033439/v-hmelnitskoyi-oblasti-voditelya-prigovorili-k-7-godam-za-naezd-na-voennoslujaschego-ttsk) - Independent confirmation of the 7-year sentence and the fact the soldier was carried on the hood. - [Подросток в Адыгее сбил инспектора ДПС и провез его на капоте несколько сотен метров](https://www.kommersant.ru/doc/9063704) - Подтверждено по источнику kommersant.ru - [В Адыгее подросток провез инспектора ДПС на капоте автомобиля](https://www.kuban.kp.ru/online/news/7247709/) - Подтверждено по источнику kuban.kp.ru ## FAQ ### Where and when did the incident occur?
