The group of prisoners includes three citizens of Uzbekistan, one from Russia, another from Belarus, as well as a citizen of Kyrgyzstan.
Six armed convicts, forcibly recruited into “Wagnerivka”, escaped from a training camp in Luhansk region. They are currently being sought on the territory of Russia.
As the propaganda dump “Tsarhorod” writes, the prisoners were actually brought to the front line a few days ago. The men allegedly agreed to sign a contract with Prigozhin’s PMC.
However, after signing the “documents”, they grabbed their weapons and ran away from death.
The group of prisoners includes three citizens of Uzbekistan, one from Russia, another from Belarus, as well as a citizen of Kyrgyzstan. Most likely, they were convicted under Article 228 of the Criminal Code of Russia — drug possession, propagandists write.
It is noted that the convicts may be in Russia. They were declared wanted in the Rostov region.
“Vigilant citizens are asked not to show independence and not to try to detain them,” the garbage collector’s message reads.
Mobilization in Russia – recruitment of prisoners
Back in August, a video appeared on the Internet showing how the leader of the “Wagnerites” Yevgeny Prigozhin, being on the territory of a prison, agitates the prisoners to go to war.
The recruitment of convicts was later confirmed by Prigozhin himself. A few months later, Putin issued the corresponding decree, which allows sending to the war zone those convicted of serious crimes.
Russian prisoners began to be recruited against the background of a campaign of partial mobilization in Russia, which did not take place, as a result of which hundreds of thousands of reservists, completely unprepared for war, were recruited into the army.
The shortage of equipment and ammunition forced the Russian mobs to go on the defensive in most directions, and in November to retreat from the right bank of the Kherson region.
On the territory of Russia itself, cases of crimes involving mobilized “convicts” have become more frequent.
At the same time, Prigozhin supports the senseless assaults by “mobs” and “prisoners” in the east of Ukraine in order to prove his importance and effectiveness to Putin.
