Judge of the Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi City District Court of the Odessa region, Serhiy Savytskyi, was released from custody after posting UAH 1.5 million in bail.

This was reported by journalists of "Word and Deed", referring to interlocutors in anti-corruption bodies.

As is known, the anti-corruption court arrested Judge Savitsky because he failed to comply with a previous decision to impose a preventive measure on him in the form of a bail of UAH 2.01 million. An alternative bail of UAH 1.5 million was set for him.

According to the interlocutors, the specified amount was paid for Judge Savitsky and he was released from custody. He was given the following obligations: not to leave the Odessa region without permission; to report a change of residence; to refrain from communicating with a number of people; to hand over his foreign passports; and to wear an electronic bracelet.

According to the investigation, judges of the Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi City District Court issued decisions on the alleged independent upbringing of a child by a father. These decisions were made for 3,500 US dollars without the participation of the parties, and gave men the opportunity to avoid mobilization and leave the country under the pretext of caring for the child. In total, investigators recorded 1,040 such decisions.
