Ramil Shamsutdinov waited for the others to surrender their weapons. Then, reportedly, he began to fuss, and after he picked up the rifle and aimed it at the soldiers who were next to him. Two commanders ran. They were followed by shots from Shamsutdinov’s weapons.

" Four draftees, two contract soldiers and two officers. Two more received life-threatening injuries. Private Shamsutdinov was soon detained and charged with murder, " “What happened in the weeks and months preceding the Chita incident in Eastern Siberia is fiercely disputed.”.

" All the more shocking was the fact that this happened in an elite unit serving the country's strategic nuclear arsenal, "

" The soldier suffered a nervous breakdown, and the incident had nothing to do with his military service, " - Publicly demonstrates indifference and the Kremlin "

"

" The video shows how a young recruit is stripped, beaten, and then repeatedly dipped in the toilet. The camcorder goes down and shows what looks like burns from an iron on the back of a soldier. His tormentors urinate on him, "

" In fact, as it turned out later, the young soldier in the video was not Ramil Shamsutdinov. But for many, the existence of such videos is an insult in itself - it makes us assume that reports of ill-treatment of Private Shamsutdinov were not an isolated case, but testified to established criminal behavior, "

" According to him, all he knows is that his son was an “ordinary simple guy” who “had no signs” of a depressed state before he went to serve in the summer. Shamsutdinov Sr. refused to detail previous interviews in which he accused the authorities of conspiring to “hide” institutionalized violence. They revealed that his son was becoming more and more withdrawn during the months of service. "

" " - He was deprived of sleep, they demanded money from him,. If a person is not allowed to sleep, but at the same time give weapons, terrible things can happen. "

" It tells about a 13-year-old girl who cannot fall asleep due to the crying baby. She does not sleep, does not sleep and does not sleep. In the end, the girl has a terrible plan. She chokes a child, and then finally falls asleep soundly, "

" But Russian forces have a particularly disturbing history when it comes to institutionalized and violent forms of intimidation. The humiliation of recruits even received the name hazing - " The symbolic "

" It led to a reduction in the period of compulsory military service from two years to one year and to the transition to a contract army. By 2012, the situation had improved so much that no case of violence was reported to the Committees of Soldiers' Mothers throughout the country..

" It was a moment that coincided with the appointment of Sergei Shoigu, one of Putin’s closest colleagues, as defense minister.. Under Shoigu, the military began to pay less attention to discipline issues. "

" " “But if you follow the career of both, you understand that neither one nor the other has a code of ethics that prioritizes the well-being of their subordinates.”.
