A resident of Novokuznetsk was sentenced to a year and a half of forced labor for beating a police officer. In August 2026, a 56-year-old drunken man caused a commotion in his ex-wife's apartment. He was then taken to the police station, where a policeman's head hit him in the face. The policeman was injured. In court, the resident of Novokuznetsk denied guilt and claimed that there was no deliberate hit. However, the court found that the use of violence against a police officer was proven. The district court in Ordzhunikidze sentenced the man to one year and six months of forced labor. 10% of his profits will be deducted as state income. Telegram | MAX.
