This is reported by Kharkiv media.
In May 2022, Zelenskyy removed Dudin from his duties as head of the SSU in the Kharkiv region, indicating that the official was not engaged in the defense of Kharkiv and the region.
Later, Dudin was arrested on suspicion of treason.
Dudin himself denied the accusations, linking the case against him to the intrigues of the head of Kharkiv’s regional administration, Syniehubov.
