In addition to the classic pardon procedure, in which a prisoner’s application must be approved by several authorities, there is a second one, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told the Interfax agency on Friday: “The second way is that they pay off their money. debts with blood. The convicts, including serious criminals, pay for their crimes with blood on the battlefield.”
The backdrop is President Vladimir Putin’s recently announced pardon for a convicted murderer. The man from the Siberian city of Kemerovo, who was originally sentenced to 17 years in prison for the murder of his ex-girlfriend in 2020, was reportedly released early after agreeing to fight in Ukraine. The case caused heated discussions and outrage in the Russian media and social networks.
Already in the first year of the war, 2022, it became known that the Russian Wagner mercenaries in particular had recruited criminals from prisons en masse. A few months ago, the recruitment of criminals by the regular army was legalized by law. The approach is repeatedly criticized, especially when cases of pardoned murderers or other serious criminals become public. (SDA)
