Fifty people were recognized as victims as a result of the “preventive” measures that the Blagoveshchensk police carried out in this small Bashkir city. Meanwhile, according to human rights activists and journalists, hundreds of people suffered at the hands of law enforcement officers. So far, only five police officers are under suspicion. Whatever the outcome of the trial, it is clear that the final measure of responsibility for the perpetrators will be determined not by the court, but by the big bosses. Maybe not even in Ufa, but in Moscow.
