1/ Human trafficking is rife in Russian military recruitment offices, according to a Russian warblogger. Scammers and organised criminal groups are exploiting medically unfit men for profit and military units corruptly "sell" men to other units. ⬇️
2/ Anastasia Kashevarova, who has campaigned for improvements to the conditions of Russian soldiers and their families, highlights how so-called "black recruiters" have exploited the generous enlistment bonuses on offer to new recruits to the Russian army.
3/ She writes that "scammers from across Russia and the CIS" are grabbing the multi-million ruble payments, allowances, and perks offered by the Russian military. "In every region, entire mafia groups are formed at military recruitment offices to traffic future soldiers."
4/ "These 'black recruiters' often have contacts in government agencies, military recruitment offices, and law enforcement agencies. These networks operate extensively, recruiting soldiers for the Russian Armed Forces across all sectors.
5/ "Scheme 1: At the recruitment centre, a soldier is rejected for failing medical or other criteria.
6/ "Upon exiting, he then becomes a victim of the 'black recruiters'—they help him obtain medical certificates and pass the military medical commission, as they have contacts at the recruitment centres.
7/ "Meanwhile, his bank card and documents are kept by the recruiter assisting him. And there, they not only withdraw payments from the card and manage them, but can also arrange a marriage with a fake "black widow" [who obtains his death benefits].
8/ "Scheme 2. They target marginalised groups of the population—alcoholics, drug addicts, those in trouble with the law. They are tricked into signing contracts while in a state of insanity.
9/ "Sometimes such individuals are deliberately detained to be threatened with prison or other such threats, and they, ignorant of the law and their rights, fall for the scam and sign everything they are given.
10/ "Naturally, the recruiters have access to their bank cards and wallets.
11/ "Scheme 3. Under the guise of recruitment for an elite unit, for example, the Afrika Korps (such cases have been clearly described), or Wagner, they lure fighters to renowned commanders, who then end up in completely different units and in completely different areas.
12/ "The fighters paid kickbacks from the payments to end up in these particular units, but they were ripped off.
13/ "There are two more schemes, but they are the most disgusting, because the trafficking of fighters is already taking place between unscrupulous regional authorities and between units. This is fraud at the highest level.
14/ "Here's how it works: for example, the Moscow region recruited for some units, and the fighters were sent to the Zaporizhzhia sector, but along the way they were "sold" to another region and sent to the Donetsk sector.
15/ "Or units are already "trading" fighters among themselves.
16/ "I sincerely hope that all these "black recruiters" who started the fighter trafficking, the shadow mafia that has extended its tentacles into government and law enforcement agencies, will be consolidated into a single unit and will be sent together to the front line,…
17/ …along with their victims and the fighters to whom they supply "unsoldierable" personnel—non-combat-ready, diseased reinforcements that damage our army and discredit it." Source: https://t.me/akashevarova/8231
@ChrisO_wiki These organised criminal groups are helping Ukraine. They bargain mentally unfit people who will be sent to the front. They suck russian state money for little results.
@ChrisO_wiki Russian corruption is Ukraine ally this time. Corrupt army and system is rotten and inefficient.
