At the New Jewish cemetery in Omsk, eight graves were desecrated with swastikas. The police uncovered the atrocity in hot pursuit: the operatives of the Central Regional Department took a 36-year-old homeless man, who soon confessed to his deed, as a lukewarm.
As it turned out, he wandered into this cemetery by accident - one alley separates him from the neighboring, Orthodox one, where he went with the hope of finding something to drink, because on Parents' Day, according to Russian customs, it is customary to leave glasses and glasses of alcohol on the graves of relatives . However, this time, to his amazement, the deceased hid their treats. At the junkyard, a frustrated tramp discovered a spray can of paint, in which there was still a lot of it, and began to console himself by drawing a fascist symbol on the graves. The occupation, although obscene, is not criminal according to current legal concepts (“This is not a crime,” the district police department told the Novaya correspondent). The Central District Court regarded it as petty hooliganism without any nationalist overtones, because, according to him, the homeless man had no idea on which tombstones he painted: nothing told him that Jews were buried here.
The court sentenced him to six days of detention in a special detention center. Now his colleagues will know in what way it is possible, if they are impatient, to get a short-term shelter and state feeding (the only shelter for the homeless in a city of a million people has only 60 beds). For the sake of these unassuming blessings, one can even confess and repent of what has not been done. Sasha, the cemetery watchman, also thinks so: in his opinion, the version with the homeless is implausible. The handwriting of the crime (he evaluates this act in this way) is teenage. A year ago, scumbags 13-15 years mangled at another local cemetery, Muslim, 29 monuments and fences.
