Now prisoners will be put on “special military registration” without their personal appearance at the military registration and enlistment office, medical examination, medical examination and psychological selection, it follows from the document.
This record will be kept by the military personnel at the location of the colonies and pre-trial detention centers. It is planned that the corresponding lists will contain information about the name, date and place of birth of the prisoner, the article under which he was convicted, information about the type of punishment, as well as about the institution where the convicted person is serving his sentence. It is proposed to check the lists of special military registration with the military registration documents of military registration and enlistment offices at least once a year.
The Russian Ministry of Defense proposed introducing “special military registration” for those serving time in prison in September 2023.
Since the summer of 2022, Russian prisoners have been actively recruited to participate in the war in Ukraine, promising them pardons and cash payments. Since February 2023, prisoners began to be recruited on behalf of the Russian Ministry of Defense.
In June, Kremlin dictator Putin signed a law allowing the military to enter into contracts with prisoners, as well as those accused and suspected of committing crimes.
