The State Bureau of Investigations (SBI) is investigating 38 cases of assistance to the aggressor by Ukrainian officials and law enforcement officers.

"The State Bureau of Investigations is investigating 38 cases of assistance to the aggressor by Ukrainian officials and law enforcement officers. Proceedings are open under Article 111 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (high treason)," the press service of the Bureau said in a statement.

The traitors are being revealed in close cooperation with the prosecutor's office and other law enforcement agencies.

Among other things, the SBI investigators launched criminal proceedings against several police officers in Mariupol and Kherson, who committed high treason under martial law and became turncoat.

"We note that the State Bureau of Investigations records only isolated cases of law enforcement officers who defected to the side of the occupying Russian authorities. The vast majority does not betray the people of Ukraine and continues to heroically defend our Motherland," the SBI said.

In addition, law enforcement officers also identify representatives of local governments who actively support and promote Russian aggression, in particular, one official was detained in Kramatorsk.
