The military enlistment office said Archpriest Bohdan Katsevych had been found fit for service and sent to a military unit.
The Volyn Territorial Recruitment Center stated that the detained UOC cleric in Osmyhovychi, Archpriest Bohdan Katsevych, was subject to conscription and, after completing the required procedures, was sent to a military unit, VSN reported.
According to press officer Uliana Kravchuk, he was stopped by a notification group for a document check, and according to the Oberih system, he was listed as subject to conscription. The TRC also claims that a military medical commission found him fit for service.
The TRC also denied reports that the cleric had suffered a heart attack. Kravchuk said that the emergency medical team had allegedly been called not to the place where Archpriest Bohdan Katsevych was located, but to another settlement.
