In accordance with Article 616 of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine, people who are suspected or accused of committing a criminal offense and for whom a preventive measure in the form of detention in custody has been chosen have the opportunity to apply to the prosecutor for the cancellation of such a preventive measure for further conscription service during mobilization.

Persons suspected of committing crimes against the foundations of national security of Ukraine and crimes provided for in a number of articles do not have the above-mentioned right, in particular, intentional murder, rape, illegal deprivation of liberty or kidnapping, etc.

According to the letter of the Ministry of Justice dated May 10, 2023: "Prisoners held in the institutions of the State Criminal Enforcement Service of Ukraine were not involved in the work of ensuring defense measures and eliminating the consequences of hostilities."

Currently, prisoners can be sent to the front if they are pardoned or paroled.
