The founder of the Gulagu.net project, Vladimir Osechkin, is convinced that Anatoly Yakunin, the deputy head of the Federal Penitentiary Service, who was dismissed a few days ago, “opposed sodomy and torture on principle.”
“Putin, at the suggestion of the Chekists from the Department of M FSB, dismissed the Deputy Director of the Federal Penitentiary Service and the real General Anatoly Yakunin, who fundamentally opposed sodomy and torture and personally visited the torture victims Kezhik Ondar and Takhirzhon Bakiev in the medical isolation ward IK-6 of the GUFSIN of Russia across Irkutsk region, “Osechkin pointed out in his Telegram.
According to him, “Yakunin was accused of a campaign to combat torture (allegedly weakness and indulgence of human rights defenders) and the fact that his subordinates missed Sergei Savelyev in September 2021 and gave him a chance to leave the Russian Federation instead of being detained.”
On the eve it became known that Russian President Vladimir Putin dismissed Lieutenant General of the Internal Service Anatoly Yakunin from the post of Deputy Director of the Federal Penitentiary Service, which he had held since April 3, 2020.
At the same time, notes “Taiga.Info”, the chairman of the interregional public charitable organization “Committee for Civil Rights” Andrei Babushkin told The Insider (the publication is included by the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation in the list of media performing the function of a foreign agent) that Yakunin is one of the few in the penal system opposed the use of torture against prisoners. He called Yakunin “one of the most decent and professional people he has met in the law enforcement system.”
We add, after the scandal with the publication of a video about torture in Russian colonies, Putin dismissed the director of the Federal Penitentiary Service, Alexander Kalashnikov.
Later, human rights activists published on the Internet another video archive with torture of prisoners. Presumably, the video demonstrates what was happening in OTB-1 in Krasnoyarsk. The video archive contains more than 100 gigabytes, the materials have already been sent to the European Parliament and the European Committee for the Prevention of Torture.
