In the same vein, prosecutors have initiated six criminal cases to address these violations. Over a thousand people have been held accountable for disciplinary violations, and 91 individuals have received administrative penalties. Maxim Zhuk emphasised the importance of a timely response to all detected violations and the need to ensure the protection of both citizens' rights and law-abiding entities.
