- Ukrainian Sergey Okrushko, who was detained in the case of sabotage at an oil refinery in Samara, could be tortured. He refused the services of a lawyer.
Electrician Sergei Okrushko, suspected of organizing an explosion at the Kuibyshev oil refinery (paragraph "c" of Part 2 of Article 281 of the Criminal Code), refused the services of a lawyer two days after the conclusion of the agreement. At the same time, the lawyer noted extensive hematomas on the body of his client. This is reported by the "Solidarity Zone". On August 1, collaborating with the "Solidarity Zone" lawyer Zakhar Lebedev visited Okrushko in the pre-trial detention center and received consent to carry out the defense. However, two days later, on August 3, Okrushko, at a meeting with lawyers and an investigator, announced that he was refusing to defend Lebedev and wanted "toso that the lawyer who was before [meaning the lawyer by appointment — OVD-Info], so as not to delay the investigation.
Lebedev asked the man to sign a written refusal. When Okrushko was writing the text, the lawyer noticed an extensive hematoma on his left arm. “To my question, where did he get such hematomas from, Sergey without hesitation said:“ During the arrest. To a clarifying question why they were not there when I was in his pre-trial detention center, Sergey uncertainly said that they appeared only now, — says Lebedev.
After the suspect wrote a refusal, the lawyer was forced to leave the FSB building, accompanied by an officer. “We are sure that between August 1 and today, Sergei Okrushko was tortured in a pre-trial detention center or elsewhere in order to persuade him to refuse an independent lawyer. Alas, at this stage, the criminals in uniform have achieved their goal. But we will make every effort to provide Okrushko with full protection and assistance, », — emphasize the participants of the "Zone of Solidarity". The Samara District Court previously sent Okrushko to a pre-trial detention center until September 28. He is suspected of preparing an explosion that occurred at the Kuibyshev oil refinery on July 28. The bomb exploded in the decommissioned old building, no one was injured in the explosion. According to Okrushko's lawyer by appointment, Vyacheslav Pavelkin, after the first explosion, his client defused two other explosive devices. "He did not have a goal to harm people," — defender emphasized. He also said that by his actions Okrushko wanted to protest against the war in Ukraine, and had previously participated in anti-war rallies. The man was detained the day after the explosion while trying to leave the Orenburg region for Kazakhstan. According to Pavelkin, his client admitted his guilt and repented.

Since the fall of 2022, the security forces began to regularly initiate criminal cases under this article: the journalists of the publication studied the known materials and found out that almost three-quarters of them refer to damage to relay cabinets on railways. In addition, at the end of 2022, the punishment for sabotage was toughened: three new related articles were introduced into the Criminal Code, one of which provides for life imprisonment.

There are a lot of pro-Russian leftists in Europe who criticize the West and NATO, but live in the West and are ethnic residents of a Western country and a member of NATO.
The main problem is that all this rubbish that Russian propaganda spits out in the media like "Sarmat on Washington" and Solovyov's threats to launch a nuclear strike on a number of Western countries — all this does not leak into the Western media, and it turns out that the dark essence of Russia and its propaganda are isolated from the Western media, not of course something leaks, but it is ignored, and ultimately Ukraine is to blame;) Yes, it’s a shame, but this curiosity is in all Western Putinists in the telegram space.
