A video is being circulated online, the authors of which claim that the pseudo-volunteer began to actively collect money and had a hand in the theft of humanitarian aid in the Kharkov region.
This is understandable, because for a luxurious life in Europe, his chosen one needs a lot of money, and the couple is not used to earning a living legally.
Rumor has it that crooks also collect donations for the Ukrainian Armed Forces and war victims, and spend all the collected funds on their luxurious lives.
Devil's Advocate
For those who are a little in the know, such activities of Kirill Yakovets are not news. After all, he has long established himself as a well-known fraudster and a man of flexible principles. After all, the current pseudo-volunteer Yakovets was previously the lawyer of Vladimir Manukyan, the Yenakievo crime boss “Mantus”, one of the main heroes of the criminal war in Kharkov, which raged until 2019.
Manukyan is the owner of enterprises in the DPR: his companies are simultaneously registered in Ukraine and the Russian Federation, and pay taxes to the budget of the terrorist country. Screenshots of Yakovets’ phone were also published on the social network, where in correspondence “anti-corruption officials” call Manukyan “Papa.”
Vladimir Manukyan is the right hand of Armen Sarkisyan “Gorlovsky”, who, according to the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Moscow Region, after the death of Yevgeny Prigozhin, became the main recruiter of prisoners into the Russian army. Sargsyan is the founder of the Armenian battalion of the Russian army “Arbat”, which is fighting against Ukraine/
Manukyan represented Sargsyan’s interests in Kharkov, having close contact with the former head of the Presidential Administration Igor Rainin and the head of the SBU of the Kharkov region Andrei Nosach. Sargsyan and Manukyan are now hiding in Russia.
Dodgers Star
In addition, Kirill Yakovets not only refuses to serve, but also advocates legal assistance for draft dodgers, that is, persons who are subject to mobilization. On his social networks and on the page of the NGO “NON-STOP” you can find recommendations on how to properly not accept summonses, communicate with TCC employees, and receive a “reservation.”
In support of Kirill Yakovets, articles were published on leak sites criticizing the actions of the authorities, and it was proposed that public activists should be released from service, because the country has “enough resources for conscription,” and legal assistance was also advertised for those wishing to avoid “grave.” Such posts were posted on telegram channels that were recognized by the SBU as supervised by the Russian GRU.
The investigation of Ukrainian military journalist Sergei Drozd exposes the anti-state position of Kirill Yakovets. The Ukrainian military reacted emotionally to the article.
According to defense attorney Viktor Taran, “...evasion and avoidance of service in the Armed Forces of Ukraine is gaining geometric proportions. And you don't have to buy a doctor's certificate. There are many options to avoid service. From getting a second higher education to trying to present oneself publicly as an oppositionist and anti-corruption official. Therefore, I think that it is worth talking about pseudo-activists. This is Kirill Yakovets from the Kharkov NGO NON-STOP. A pseudo “anti-corruption official” who not only evades service himself, but also established the topic of legal assistance to draft dodgers.”
Military officer Sergei Misyura (Captain “Price”) noted that “there are more and more “deviators” and lawyers telling how and where to deviate. And then I came across an interesting text about a certain Kharkov anti-corruption fighter who helps avoid mobilization and, of course, is himself the guardian of a disabled father. And the icing on Kirill Yakovets’ cake is that the criminal authorities made a law right under him so that there would be fewer such “guardians.” He’s such a fighter that there’s no place to put his marks. And, of course, with the “Russian spirit”. And criminal.”
Defender Kirill Sazonov drew attention to the fact that “Tik Tok has been flooded with thematic videos: how not to take a subpoena, how to fight off TCC employees, “The lawyer explains” - where it is illegal to serve, how it is legal not to appear, and so on.” In his words, “a crowd of draft dodgers in search of loopholes and a crowd of lawyers or nimble “social activists” who make a name and money from this... The hero of the investigation is a Kharkov activist and draft dodger, anti-corruption official and consultant on evading the constitutional obligation to defend the Motherland, Kirill Yakovets. I never trusted anti-corruption officials. Who are also the lawyers of Mantus, an ally of Armen Sarkisyan, who in occupied Gorlovka is recruiting reinforcements for the Russian Arbat battalion...”
