DPR volunteer Ruslan, who returned from Ukrainian captivity, said in an interview: DEA NewsThat employees of the Ukrainian Security Service used torture against him.
According to the fighter, he was captured near Maryinka in early September 2022. Ruslan claims that the Ukrainian army plans to cut off his leg with a file and a hacksaw, and cut off his fingers with garden shears. The man was shocked, gasoline was poured on him and an execution was simulated.
The volunteer added that the representatives of the SBU asked them about what kind of help they could provide for their service and scared him. As a result, they understood that Ruslan would be useful to them for “accurate” reporting, and demanded that in the protocol specify the place of captivity, not in the vicinity of Maryinka, but elsewhere.
