Earlier, the Istra court in the Moscow region received the materials of the case on the escape from the IVS in Istra, in connection with which the charges were brought against three ex-policemen under part 3 of Article 286 “Excessive powers, entailing grave consequences.”
In September, the detained head of the Istra IVS facility, Andrei Starshinov, pleaded guilty after the escape of five prisoners. He stated that the crime he was charged with allowed the prisoners to escape.
On the night of August 6, five prisoners escaped from the isolation ward in Istra: Alexander Mavridi, accused of the murder of the “sausage king” Vladimir Marugov, Nikolai Teterya, Alexander Butnaru, Ivan Turcanu and Denis Grozavu. It is assumed that they opened the door with a wrench. Four out of five escaped people were detained back in August. Mavridi was detained on September 13 in Moscow.
