He wrote about this on his Facebook page.

At first, Roman Vintoniv posted a photo of the summons that came in the name of Michael Yemelyanovich Shchur, but after a wave of criticism on the social network, he posted a photo of the real summons, specifying that “he passed the medical examination and on Monday he is going to study in Desna” (a military unit in the Kyiv region).

Let us remind you that Michael Shchur is a “correspondent for the UT-Toronto TV channel of the Ukrainian diaspora of Canada, sent to Ukraine before the 2012 parliamentary elections.” Subsequently, Vintoniv himself called his method of doing work “mischief” and “hooliganism.”
