The Eastern Military District denied media reports about the mass beating of servicemen in the Khabarovsk Territory. This was reported by the press service of the district.
“This information is not true,” the report says.
The press service of the district said that a fight broke out between the conscript and the contract soldier. Another soldier separated the fighters. Two people received bruises.
The military district claims that “no violations of the statutory rules of relations in relation to other servicemen of the military unit have been identified.”
Earlier, the mother of one of the victims, Natalya Kichigina, reported that a conscript was beaten in one of the Khabarovsk military units. According to media reports, on the night of February 16, in a military unit in the Khabarovsk Territory, a senior warrant officer began to beat soldiers with a stick. The son of Kichigina, who tried to intercede for his colleagues, was hit with a bat in the kidneys by a sergeant who was nearby. Kichigina stated that before the beating, the ensign had a verbal skirmish with the soldiers. After the incident, Kichigina’s son was taken to the Khabarovsk hospital, and the rest of the victims are still in the unit.
