On June 9, it became known that prisoner Artem Anishchuk was subjected to physical and psychological abuse by the colony administration from the moment he arrived at the penal colony. The torture is related to the fact that the head of the colony is a friend of Alexander Geyts, the victim in the case for which the prisoner was tried. This is not the first case of ill-treatment in IK-15. Earlier, another prisoner reported that he was beaten by Lazarenko. Another prisoner reported that the colony could send a person to a punishment cell for statistics.
