So always here

Letter from Kopeisk: "There were cases of frostbite of parts of the face"

The New Times publishes a statement to the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation of convicted Vladimir Sergeevich, serving a sentence in IK-6 Kopeisk

Vladimir Sergeevich writes about how colony officers extort money from prisoners. On November 24, a rebellion flared up in IK-6. The leadership of the Federal Penitentiary Service of the Russian Federation and human rights activists came to Kopeisk. The Investigative Committee began the investigation of the incident. On December 7, human rights activists demanded during the investigation to remove from the work of the head of the colony Denis Mechanov and his deputies. The head of the Federal Penitentiary Service for the Chelyabinsk Region, Vladimir Turbanov, addressed the media with an open letter with a request to "not to disseminate false allegations of events in the correctional colony No. 6 of the GUFSIN of Russia in the Chelyabinsk Region." “At all times, the first thing that was created in the state is a church and a prison,” the jailer reminded reporters. At the moment, one of the employees or leadership of the colony has been punished for the facts of torture in prison was not received.
