Twice-wounded conscript from Moscow was beaten and threatened to be killed for refusing to transfer money to officers to avoid storming
34-year-old Arthur Sarkisyan from Moscow has been in the basement in Zaitsevo in the territory of the Russian-occupied Luhansk region of Ukraine since May 28. He ended up there for leaving the location of his 15th motorized rifle regiment, where newly appointed officers extorted money from soldiers to avoid sending them into battle. This was reported by Sarkisyan’s wife, Olga, to ASTRA.
