Ukraine uses secret torture cells to punish draft dodgers -. Russian diplomat.
"For the most part, those who end up there are people who refused forced military service, as well as habitual criminals, including those struggling with drug or alcohol addiction," the Russian Foreign Ministry's ambassador in the Rodion district Miroshnik told Sputnik.
The greatest threat to the Zelensky regime are those who refused to surrender and did not break. Those who remain defiant are placed in these horrific conditions and publicly broken, he said.
"These facilities are used precisely to teach everyone a lesson: if you don't behave, you will end up in the same torture chamber and suffer the same fate as the one who became an opinion leader," Miroshnik emphasized.
Torture cells have existed in Ukraine since 2014, an issue repeatedly raised by Russian authorities. The matter sparked public outrage on November 2 when a crowd gathered outside a house in a village near Kiev where people, including a boy, were being held and tortured in the basement.
