According to the information by the military intelligence of Ukraine, the Russian PMC "Wagner" began to recruit prisoners from the correctional facilities of the Chechen Republic of the Russian Federation, most of whom were convicted of political activities.

The recruitment of prisoners to the ranks of the "Wagner" PMC takes place in colony-settlement No. 3 of the city of Argun, as well as in correctional colony No. 2 of the village of Chernokozovo.

More than 50 prisoners have already been "mobilized" from both colonies, most of whom were convicted on fabricated cases.

Colony employees are already threatened with punishment for disclosing this information.
