This morning, border guards of the Ivankiv department together with the National Police found three people who illegally entered the exclusion zone outside the established checkpoints.
The goal that the men born in 1984, 1986 and 1995 pursued in violation of current legislation was extreme tourism and recreation.
For non-compliance with the requirements of the radiation safety regime in the area that has been exposed to radioactive contamination, administrative protocols have been drawn up for the trio of violators, the decision on which will be made by the court.
Also, on the same night, border guards of the Mlachivka department together with the National Police in the exclusion zone found a group of people who were collecting bark from coniferous trees.
Residents of Cherkasy and Poltava oblasts entered the forbidden territory outside the checkpoints and by the time the police found them, they had already collected about 80 bags of bark.
Currently, police officers have drawn up administrative materials on persons for violating the requirements of the radiation safety regime in the area that has been exposed to radioactive contamination.
In addition, this act falls under criminal liability under Article 267-1 of the Criminal Code “Violation of the requirements of the radiation safety regime.” Information is expected to be entered into the ERDR. Tools and means of committing the offense were seized by the National Police for further investigation.
