Justice in Russia
A first-year conscript at the Chelyabinsk Armor Academy was forced to squat for several hours while beating him last New Year's Eve. The incident led to the amputation of Sychyov's legs and genitals.
Links here, here and here.
For this, Junior Sergeant Alexander Sivyakov was sentenced to 4 years in prison.
What I would like to highlight here is not only the atrocities taken place in the Russian military during hazing. But also the incredible set of values Russian judges put on things.
As a reference, I would like to give 2 examples:
- an accountant was sentenced to 3,5 years for having forgotten to declare $20,000 to the tax office in the Yukos case.
- a protester having put a poster saying "Putin, leave office" on a wall of a old communist building destined to demolition was sentenced to 7 years for destruction of public property.
