In Transcarpathia, a man presented to border guards another person’s passport

Yesterday, at the checkpoint "Solotvyno", border guards of the Mukachevo detachment found a man who, when crossing the border, presented another person’s passport.

The 36-year-old Ukrainian told border guards that, while staying abroad, he violated the legislation of one of the European Union countries. In order to avoid punishment, the man decided to steal documents from his friend and return to Ukraine with his passport. 

Since the man committed an offense under Part 1 of Article 204 of the CAO "Illegal crossing or attempt to illegally cross the state border of Ukraine", a report on administrative offense was drawn up. The case was forwarded to court.
