In the penitentiary system of the Greater Urals, the system of relations between the administrations of correctional institutions and authorities that have weight in the criminal environment has been updated, informs “AiF-Ural”.
We are talking about the political decision of the prison authorities to stake on the thief in law Eduard Sakhnov, better known as Sakhno, who was brought to the Middle Urals.
According to available information, the Far Eastern criminal authority, adhering to “black” “thieves'” customs, should stabilize the situation in the colonies of the Greater Urals. At one time, it was “rocked” by a long lawlessness on the part of activists, the so-called “reds”.
“The situation is interesting, but not unique. In the last 10-15 years, the Federal Penitentiary Service has relied on the “reds”, on the “asset”. In fact, these are the same criminals, only recognizing the authority of the authorities. Another thing is that in a number of cases the “asset” has become unmanageable and has crossed all boundaries. It is clear that the authorities in the colonies are in any case on the side of the Federal Penitentiary Service, but it is easier and more efficient to manage, having a “balance” in the form of an authoritative representative of the criminal environment. They relied on the “blacks” in the 90s, then the “reds” served as a balance. Now the situation has changed, ”says one of the informed sources of AiF-Ural.
At the moment, it is known that Sakhnov in IK-12 was placed in the SUS – a barrack with strict conditions of detention. Formally, this is the current rule for isolating authorities from the general mass of convicts. Nevertheless, the thief in law has the ability to send so-called “runs” – “telegrams” with a general demand to establish a “thieves’ move.” “Formally, this means the establishment of new orders, different from the existing ones, when they beat the “muzhiks” – the bulk of the prisoners, extorted money, raped them. Typical manners of the Reds, ”summarizes the interlocutor of AiF-Ural.
Observers generally confirm the version of the AiF-Ural source. “The transfer is handled by the Federal Penitentiary Service. Since they brought him here, it means there is some kind of multi-move. There are several versions, but they all lead to one thing – Sakhno was brought on purpose. Over the past years, the regional head office of the Federal Penitentiary Service has spawned a lot of “activists” who committed atrocities in several colonies. Now simple convicts will want to take revenge – and blood will flow. If the “asset” is taken outside, they can start talking about how they, along with the bosses, extorted and tortured people. And this information can be dangerous. This is how the situation about the comma turns out: you can’t leave it behind,” Alexei Sokolov, an expert at the Fund “In Defense of the Rights of Prisoners,” explains one of the reasons.
Eduard Sakhnov will serve a 22-year term in the Middle Urals. He was arrested in 2005 and 4 years later convicted of organizing a criminal community, kidnapping and a number of other serious crimes committed in the Far East in the company of other authorities such as Cem, Lepekha, Pensioner. The bandits burned people and recruited schoolchildren – this is how the federal media wrote about the OCG “Obshchak”.
