The Directorate of the Federal Penitentiary Service for the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Okrug refutes information about alleged facts of mass beatings of prisoners in subordinate colonies. As reported today, April 7, in the press service of the department, we are talking about publications that talked about the beating by the staff of colony No. 8 (IK-8) of newly arrived prisoners from colony No. 14 (IK-14), located in the Surgut district of Ugra.

As emphasized in the press service, after the publication of the materials, the authorities of the district department of the Federal Penitentiary Service for the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Okrug appointed an internal audit, as a result of which no facts of violations of the law by the employees of the correctional institution were revealed.

IK-8 "Polar Bear" is located in the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Okrug in the village of Labytnangi. According to some reports, the colony has an unofficial status of "red", that is, it is completely controlled by the administration. At the same time, colony No. 14, located in the Surgut district near the village of Lokosovo, until recently had the status of a "black" colony, where criminal "authorities" had some power over prisoners. Thus, as observers note, the difference in the status of the colonies could have been the cause of violence against some prisoners. However, this is just a guess.

Meanwhile, according to experts, in the Russian colonies there is a practice of "acquaintance" with the zone of convicts who arrived from other colonies not loyal to the administration. “If the administration used violence against newly arrived prisoners in the colonies, I can guess why. As far as I know, the same IK-8 and IK-2, unlike the Lokosovo zone, have the status of "red". And the authorities of the two zones are unlikely to want to change the status to “black”, that is, to have criminal authorities rule among the prisoners there. I believe that in this regard, perhaps, such a “warm reception” was arranged for the prisoners from the “black zone”. This is so that they immediately understand what orders are in the zone, and do not try to change them. Simply put, by means of violence, the “thieves spirit” is beaten out of them. I do not rule out such a version of events,” one of the former security officials shared his thoughts.

In March of this year, the department of the Federal Penitentiary Service for the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug officially announced that the Lokosovo colony would be closed due to its economic inefficiency. At the same time, all 806 prisoners will be transferred to other correctional institutions located on the territory of the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug, Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug and the Tyumen Region.

A few days ago, some media and Internet portals reported that the transfer of prisoners from IK-14 to IK-8 is of a "torture nature." In particular, this was repeatedly reported by the human rights portal Gulagu.net.

“At the moment, 102 convicts have been transferred from the colony. The rest are waiting for the stage. The first two batches of convicts in the amount of 25 and 29 people arrived at their destination at IK-2 of the city of Tyumen and at IK-8 of the YNAO (Labytnangi). Both stages were severely beaten. And they are being beaten to this day, ”one of the messages said. The portal also published a list of allegedly beaten prisoners of the 14th colony.

Today, another department of the Federal Penitentiary Service, in the Tyumen region, following colleagues from the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug, denied the information about the beating of prisoners from the Lokosovo IK-14 in the subordinate colony of strict regime No. 2 (IK-2). By the way, IK-2 is also called “red” among the prisoners.

“On the eve of IK-2, the UFSIN of Russia in the Tyumen region was visited by representatives of the prosecutor’s office for supervision of compliance with laws in correctional institutions of the Tyumen region and members of the regional Public Monitoring Commission, who held conversations with each convict who arrived at the correctional institution, during which they explained that physical force no one used it against newcomers to the colony and no one saw convicts beaten by correctional officers, ”the press service of the Federal Penitentiary Service for the Tyumen Region said.

If you yourself are a scientist or just an inquisitive person, and you often watch or read the latest news in the field of science or technology. It is for you that we have created such a section, which covers the latest world news in the field of new scientific discoveries, achievements, as well as in the field of technology. Only the latest events and only trusted sources.

In our progressive time, science is moving at a fast pace, so it is not always possible to keep up with them. Some old dogmas are crumbling, some new ones are being put forward. Mankind does not stand still and should not stand still, but the engine of mankind is scientists, scientists. And at any moment a discovery can occur that can not only amaze the minds of the entire population of the globe, but also radically change our lives.

A special role in science is allocated to medicine, since a person, unfortunately, is not immortal, fragile and very vulnerable to all kinds of diseases. Many people know that in the Middle Ages people lived on average 30 years, and now 60-80 years. That is, at least doubled life expectancy. This was influenced, of course, by a combination of factors, but it was medicine that played a big role. And, for sure, 60-80 years for a person is not the limit of average life. It is possible that someday people will cross the mark of 100 years. Scientists from all over the world are fighting for it.

In the field of other sciences, developments are constantly underway. Every year, scientists from all over the world make small discoveries, slowly moving humanity forward and improving our lives. Places untouched by man are being explored, first of all, of course, on our home planet. However, work is constantly taking place in space.

Among technology, robotics is especially rushing forward. An ideal intelligent robot is being created. Once upon a time, robots were an element of fantasy and nothing more. But already at the moment, some corporations have real robots in their staff, which perform various functions and help optimize labor, save resources and perform dangerous activities for a person.

I would also like to pay special attention to electronic computers, which even 50 years ago occupied a huge amount of space, were slow and required a whole team of employees for their care. And now such a machine, in almost every home, is already called more simply and briefly - a computer. Now they are not only compact, but also many times faster than their predecessors, and anyone can figure it out. With the advent of the computer, mankind has opened a new era, which many call "technological" or "information".

Remembering the computer, do not forget about the creation of the Internet. It also gave a huge result for humanity. This is an inexhaustible source of information, which is now available to almost everyone. It connects people from different continents and transmits information with lightning speed, it was impossible to even dream of such a thing 100 years ago.

In this section, you will certainly find something interesting, exciting and informative for yourself. Perhaps even someday you will be one of the first to know about a discovery that will not only change the world, but will turn your mind upside down.

"Polar Bear" is an informal name. Like others: "Polar Owl", "White Swan", "Black Dolphin". In fact, all colonies have alphanumeric names. This one - IK-8, is located in Labytnangi.

First-time convicted men come here. In the "White Bear" there are about seven hundred of them. They are mostly convicted of drug-related crimes: possession, sale. And for crimes against the life and health of citizens.

Living quarters, eating places, school, bakery and workshops, sports ground.

Prisoners are allowed video calls with relatives. About once a month they can see their loved ones on the screen. Live dates are also allowed.

School

More precisely, the evening class assigned to the eighth Labytnang school. Convicts who do not have a complete secondary education and have not reached the age of thirty are obliged to receive education in places of deprivation of liberty. Educators strictly control this moment - they ask for copies of certificates, and if they are not there, at the beginning of the school year, they are enrolled in an evening school by order.

Here they receive secondary incomplete and secondary specialized education. Issue a certificate.

Teachers - coming, from the eighth school. They are separated from the students by bars.

We were warned at the entrance to take pictures only of those who gave their consent. Head of the colony Sergey Skachev:
- If someone is against it, raise your hand. Are you against? Two, who are against - go to this corner. And you shoot so that they don’t get into the frame - that’s for me.

I repeat, those who are under thirty are obliged to study. However, older people are also educated. There is a man who is over fifty, also expressed a desire to study.

Dining room

The colony has its own bakery. In addition, they make their own pasta and grilled chicken.

The bread is baked by the prisoners themselves. Some of them came here with a profession, someone learned already here.

The smell of bread is incredible. They gave me a piece. Grey! Awesome!

Lunch starts at 11 am. There are four groups on the menu: general (minimum nutritional standards) and special groups, people with various diseases, diabetics, for example, get there. Four types of porridge: semolina, oatmeal, barley, millet.

Dining room

Score

In a small store on the territory of IK-8, the assortment is not displayed in showcases. Just posted a price list. Toothbrush and paste, various canned foods, quick-cooking soups, seeds... Prices are always compared with regional ones, and should not be exceeded. The freshness of the goods is controlled. However, the products are not stale, says the seller. The most popular are sweets: condensed milk, sugar, pies, marshmallows, sweets, snickers, chocolates. And cigarettes.
Smoking, however, has become less. The Tobacco Prohibition Act had an effect. And rising prices for tobacco products.
Hygiene items are provided to the convicts in full, however, in order to have a wider assortment, Colgate and more expensive toothbrushes are brought into the store.
Convicts receive wages, and those who do not work receive money from relatives.

Living spaces

Detachments are housed in barracks-type premises. In each - about a hundred people.

Sports ground with exercise equipment - right under the open sky. This one is empty, but I saw that they were working on the other one. There is an opportunity to practice every day. Even in winter.

crossover

Bench and bench press

Inner courtyard of the detachment.

Inside. Beds are bunk. Today is Wednesday, so the bed looks like this.

On each bed there is a sign with a name and a photo

The option of making beds is determined, it is the same for all convicts.

A room where they watch TV, write letters, listen to lectures.

Awards for the participation of the detachment in sports and cultural events

The dining room. There is a kettle, stove, water. Here you can drink tea, eat food that is given by relatives or bought in a store. Today is (again) a sanitary day, the refrigerator is defrosting, so everything is laid out on the table.

Chapel

The former premises of the bakery were taken under the chapel. A frame has been made on which it is planned to hang the bells. With God's help, say the staff of the colony. They promised to help in the church and bring the bells.

A strictly censored library of Orthodox literature is collected here, there is a room for prayers. There are baptisms, once a quarter for sure. You can come to pray every day, the main thing is not to fall out of the general regime. Each squad has a set time. Now here only orderly.

production area

We pass through the sanitary checkpoint to the production area. Here, the prisoners change clothes, receive a tool and leave for work sites. During the day they work, eat from work in the reverse order: they change into the clothes in which they are in the detachment, and disperse among the detachments.

This model is collected for about a year. It is quite large, about a meter long. Each plank, the masters say, needs to be processed all day. And the planks are a little thicker than matches.

Vessel scheme

And this is another workshop. Here they cut wood

Both young and old order. They choose songs from the eighties, nineties... And more modern ones. A database of songs that have passed censorship has been created.
They also play movies. Mostly historical, patriotic, educational tapes.
“We have no right to play premieres, we show films only after they have been shown on central television,” the political instructor said.

Applications are added here if they want, for example, to congratulate a friend on his birthday.

Head of the colony - Colonel of the internal service Skachev Sergey Viktorovich

Convicts require a lot of work of psychological services, educators, - says the head of the colony. - It all starts with the daily routine, with discipline. Convicts get used to living within the law, many, having received a profession, then get a job. Many, especially from among the small peoples of the North, receive a complete secondary education, then receive professions that are in demand in the district: a bricklayer, carpenter, carpenter, cook, welder, fireman.

Most of the convicts are from Yamal, this is the policy of Russia: the distribution of convicts within the territorial body. The bulk of the convicts are ours, from Yamal. In each detachment - up to a hundred people. The payroll is inconsistent, reformed convicts receive conditional early release by a court decision.

Recently, more families have been created. During this year, about ten cells of the society were created, literally last week for the last time. Like all citizens of Russia, they apply to the registry office, and on the appointed day, the future spouse comes here with the registrar. Applications are submitted to the registry office by territory.
