A car with occupants and the corpse of a deserter was detained in the Russian Federation
The deceased occupier had previously fought in Ukraine under contract, but recently deserted and went home.
Police in Russia's Kirov Region stopped a car with two occupants and the corpse of their colleague. This was reported by the Russian Telegram channel Baza on 29 February.
The deceased was a deserted colleague of the men. The military came to "return" him on the assignment of the commander and put him in the basement, where he died of hypothermia.
On the night of 23 February, police officers stopped a Lada-Granta in the Kirov district of Talitsa. When the driver stopped, the passenger opened the door and tried to escape, but failed. After opening the boot, the police realised the reason for the escape - there was a man's body in the boot. The deceased turned out to be 44-year-old Roman Shishkin from the local village of Rudnichny, - stated in the message.
During the interrogation of the driver and passenger it turned out that the deceased Roman Shishkin had previously fought in Ukraine under contract, but recently deserted and went home.
The commander asked fellow soldiers, who also lived in the Kirov region, to bring the fugitive back to the unit. They went to Rudnichny, but no agreement was reached - the man refused to return to the war.
Then he was beaten and transported to Kirov, where he was thrown naked in the basement, where they continued to beat him periodically.
A few days later Roman Shishkin died. The men tried to take the body out of the city, but at that moment they were stopped by police officers.
An expert examination showed that the deserter died of hypothermia. The suspects were detained and arrested.
