The court found him guilty under Article 335 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (evasion from mobilization). The verdict noted that this was his first time facing criminal liability, he is a displaced person, and he has a child dependent on him.

As a punishment, the man was sentenced to one year of restriction of freedom.
