Another serviceman was sentenced to a long term for failure to appear during mobilization

The Vladikavkaz garrison court found Muayed Kochesokov, a mobilized resident of Kabardino-Balkaria, guilty of leaving the unit without permission and sentenced him to six years in prison.


According to investigators, in October 2022, the serviceman left the military unit and went home to see his relatives. As soon as he learned from a colleague about the wanted list in January 2023, he immediately arrived at the commandant's office. Despite remorse and the presence of two children, the contractor was sentenced to a long term.

Earlier, courts in Chechnya, North Ossetia, Adygea and other regions of the North Caucasus sentenced military personnel under Part 5 of Art. 337 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (failure to appear during mobilization).
