The Southern District Military Court sentenced contract soldier Khamidulla Mukhamedyaev from Stavropol Krai to 7 years in a special regime penal colony. He escaped from the military unit four times and committed robbery.
Before becoming a "military man", Mukhamedyaev was in the colony under the ninth sentence. Previously, he was found guilty of robbery, theft, causing serious bodily harm, fraud, drug possession, threatening to kill, etc.
In March 2024, the prisoner was recruited from the colony by signing a contract with the Russian army. Three weeks later, he escaped from the unit. Subsequently, Mukhamedyaev returned and again disappeared from his place of service - a total of four times. In addition, he committed a robbery - he stole a phone and a thousand rubles from a passerby. The criminal was arrested after being detained by the police and received a prison sentence.
