Russlands Alcatraz - Der härteste Knast auf der Feuerinsel | Doku

The euro is a murderer, the series of mafia bosses or the Russian courts have sentenced them to the maximum penalty of life imprisonment, which means that we live until the end of their lives. They are all sitting on the island of fire, the island of the damned. "The prison was for centuries in the Münch monastery in tsarist times. Now there are almost 200 serious criminals sitting here. There has never been an eruption. Our farmers are 80 to 150 centimeters thick. You can't dig a hole there overnight without turning into a large number of markets and wastelands surround the island.

In summer temperatures rise up to 35 degrees, in winter up to -30 degrees, some prisoners in the high security prison in northern Russia prefer choose the death penalty rather than continue sitting here. Nowadays I would rather die by shooting, what do I live for? Whoever submits can work in a paid job in prison. Sewing is considered a privilege. Anyone who does not move can only escape from the gruesome daily life as he walks around the yard in small, inhuman cages. They make their rounds and until the end of their lives on Fire Island, only men who have committed their actions for particularly vile motives and in an extremely cruel manner are imprisoned. . 15 05 Sally number 884 captain demi boss open prisoner hands behind his back yuri lefarov sentenced according to paragraphs 105 103 each paragraph 2 the verdict was issued on 03 24 20 116 in the cell type of life four inmates three are at work go to Me good morning now we will examine your cell for prohibited objects there are no prohibited objects present with your back to me we will put handcuffs on you sharp objects are prohibited they could be used as weapons or escape tools come out facing the wall on the other side prohibited objects on the man no Paragraphs 105 and 106 of the Russian Criminal Code This is a murder: the sexual murderer Levern brutally killed his girlfriend.

The guards control the liver cells. They look for objects that can be used as weapons or escape tools to avoid riots. All the larger objects are fixed, says the deputy. prison director everything is arranged the beds are welded to the floor four or three prisoners are always housed in cells like this the bathroom is the only place where there is privacy it is also firmly anchored to the floor it works with a cistern the prisoners can smoke yes, the ventilation ensures that the smoke disappears quickly, by the way, we see everything the men do in the cell, video surveillance and we are in contact with the prisoners through an intercom without any risk to personal safety Profiles of offenders for the prevention of crimes Violé and Maté and that was particularly cruel.

What do you mean by particularly cruel? I abused my girlfriend. How should I say that? I also hurt her organs. What does that mean? I'm embarrassed to talk about it. What did you do? his organs were torn out with his bare hands evernote committed his first sexual crime at the age of 17 iwanov committed a crime against a nine-year-old girl when he was a teenager he tried to rape her she was the daughter of his brother's partner images from russian television iwanov He has four counts of child abuse Years in prison, he comes out again and commits the murder of all those coming from China in a garage in the city of Saransk, in central Russia.

He lures the young woman here to, as he tells the police, perform sexual experiments on her. Then he suddenly went crazy and we showed the agents where and how he committed the murder. face several times, why does a police officer ask so that he does not resist? This police video has evidentiary value in court. We have a psychiatric report at a clinic. Doctors concluded that he was completely sane during the crime. This also applies today. Bahnhof receives a 23-year prison sentence for a murder with particularly nefarious motives. The prosecution appeals, demands a life sentence and gets what he wants.

Life imprisonment in Russia means imprisonment literally to death. In theory, after 25 years, there is a possibility of being released due to good behavior or militant circumstances. Levano speculates that Mode explains that he was not sane during the time of the crime. He was under the influence of drugs. I smoked spies during my first prison. phrase After my release, I took it more frequently. It's easy to get to the dealer. I deposit the drugs in an agreed place. One dose costs 1,500 or 2,000 rubles. The synthetic substance changes. I make you aggressive. The time starts at 2,000 rubles are about 28 euros and are limited to the inability of new good leaders, that is, to take advantage of the strategy and perhaps be able to leave Fire Island after 25 years.

So far, no one who has been sentenced to life imprisonment in Russia "Has been released again. Much will depend later on the psychologists' report. The Austrians will never have Fire Island in German is the oldest high-security prison in Russia, surrounded of sparsely populated swampy areas," asks the Alcatraz-like former Orthodox monastery in New Jersey. of San Francisco Bay The EK 5 prison is located about 600 kilometers north of Moscow, in the middle of a lake of approximately twelve square kilometers on the neighboring island of Slutsky. In Germany, prison guards live very well, many of them still live in dilapidated Soviet wooden barracks on Lake Novo Osaka.

Time seems to have stopped in some places. The Holy Church built a monastery on the island in the 16th century. At night, residents of surrounding villages burn torches there. That's why they call the island Fire Island. In 1917, the October Revolution brought the predominantly atheist Bolsheviks to power. They expelled them. The monks turned the monastery into a gulag for enemies of the state. In 1994, Fire Island became a high-security prison for serious criminals. A place of no return. The gunners already on the island of fire the kowski knows the island like no other control tour several times a day the guards check the walls and the back no entry areas are allowed we are at the entrance to the prison behind the walls there are 189 men each of them were sentenced to life imprisonment terrorists serial killers gang bosses gang bosses and basement They have committed different crimes.

Come with me. Just behind the entrance is the administrative area of ​​the prison. The administration and prisoners wing. We are next to each other because we are on a small island. In the past, when it was still a monastery, its commandments about water are directly through the north gate. We headed to the Church of the Resurrection of Christ. We enter the living room with living people. area As kowski says, the high security cells in the old Church of the Resurrection Checkpoint, wing for two prisoners The living room is relatively compact Four buildings were renovated two years ago The foundation and walls are historic This is the old monastery church The Resurrection of Christ Here on the right is wing 1 being renovated.

All buildings now have running water and are connected to the sewage system. There are new surveillance cameras everywhere and we recently installed a ventilation system. Come on, the ventilation system allows you to open the windows at least partially during the In the warm season you have to keep it closed, because as soon as the snow disappears, masses of mosquitoes from the swamps fall on the island of fire. In summer the temperature reaches 35 degrees, in winter the temperatures drop to -30 degrees because there are ", the lieutenant colonel does not expect any special incidents in this area. In wing 4 there are eight prisoners and in wing 21 there are 80 prisoners.

There is a risk of escape. As I said, two years ago we completely renovated wing four. During the reconstructions We discovered historical frescoes and restored them. That is the method and a curie frisco is still preserved. They made a prison in a monastery which was ideal due to the location of the island. The water is a perfect escape barrier. So far there has not been a serious attempt to escape. There are swamps and fields on the other side of the lake. No one knows which direction to run. The walls of our monastery have between 80 and 150 cm thick, there we try to dig a hole during the night without anyone noticing, it is unrealistic in each cycle in At least one bathroom like here the inmates of a cell go to shower together so three or When four people finish, they move to the next row one after another.

For safety reasons, boilers provide hot water in this building. There are 45 life sentences for each one. We go twice a week. There is also video surveillance here. No, privacy applies here. The guard closes this door. Everything is controlled through the viewing window. Video surveillance is prohibited by law in the bathroom. This is our sanitary zone. The ladder weighs that. Mr. Gates left and right are the treatment rooms the isolation room if someone has an infectious disease they go to this cell so as not to infect others we could also treat dental problems once a month the doctor comes more often if necessary and if The prisoners need gasoline or they have to be hung from the drip, what happens is that in this room the island of fire is a security prison that is almost at daily maximum in absolute terms, you only have to deliver food, there is even a sewing workshop.

Found in the Alps, Russian Orthodox graves in which, of course, there were also human graves. When the sewing department built this tombstone, a cemetery was built. Lieutenant Colonel Dimitri Timo appeared to have died on 10 December 1858. Cells for serious criminals in the Church of Christ of the Resurrection. Frescoes in the prison computer room of the monastery's founder, Carroll Noveski, believe that the murderer Michael Bukharov recorded his path to religion with tattoos; He had literally dismembered an acquaintance with 48 stab wounds for fear that the acquaintance would file a complaint against him after a robbery. Do you see this being in the best hands?

Is it the devil's devil or evil, how are these tattoos related to God? I didn't make them at all before I found God and when you came. Believe? Three years after the tattoo on your back, you are this prisoner on the sea. It is God who forgives us, but today you are really a believer. So you have found God in prison according to the motto Death by shooting. When was he? in 1994 why the sentence was not carried out because the moratorium on the death penalty came, but I think that in 1994 the death sentence converted them and now they are in favor of reintroducing the death penalty.

I would prefer at this moment to be shot, what? what do I live for, but there is a possibility of parole after 25 years, what an opportunity, it's all just theory, people have been sitting here for 30 years, no one leaves alive Bukharov believes that he can only get off the island of fire in a sack because he was murdered in a particularly brutal way with 48 stab wounds his death sentence in installments at seven in the morning the morning shift resumes inspection patrols the fences and walls are checked again also in the sewing factory the day begins work prisoners take for granted Work is a privilege Whoever hopes to leave after 25 years tries to get one of the few electric machines Earns money for a life of freedom Sexual murderer Ivanov firmly believes that one day life will leave a country and stoically endures strict security measures. measures.

The men produce life jackets, souvenirs and work clothes for a private company in Moscow. Around 100 euros a month is the highest income on the prison island. These are the things that are made here souvenirs life jackets also for children work clothes for medical staff construction workers Swiss security forces fed during the winter what do prisoners do with the money they are paid according to the performance principle ? You can save money or buy food through our store or they send it to the relatives of some prisoners as payment levers for The relatives of their victims also receive the so-called compensation payment.

I have to pay compensation due to a lawsuit against the murdered man's mother. How much do they transfer depending on their earnings? From two to three thousand rubles. Yes, you have ten every month. How long until? 15 years what is the total amount? two million rubles 2 million rubles are equivalent to about 28,600 euros After work we go to the yard for two hours a day, but only a few people take advantage of this opportunity. In winter on Lake Neusiedl Freezing wind in summer, countless mosquitoes attack the prisoners. The walk around the yard is done in these little Austin boxes.

There is no longer freedom of movement. There are no inhumane cage conditions. A prisoner advances towards the wall. They enter Most of the officers are aware of the crimes committed by the inmates. They deal with the details, not so much self-protection, so as not to be completely psychologically forums. Psychologists are in charge of analyzing crimes. They also say whether, in theory, a life sentence would be ripe for parole after parole. 25 years. I largely stay out of it, otherwise I'd go crazy with all the dirt. many murdersthey are easy, just dad, daylight, a few steps, no handcuffs, no disturbing.

Cell neighbors sex murderer Levano tries to stay mentally alive with positive thoughts Life sentence has nothing to do with the end of life Each person live, learn, work and try to open new chapters despite many adversities The death penalty would not save you much "Even in such a situation, not all people die. I am attached to my life. Ville Valo has clearly crossed a red line due to the brutality of his crimes. He criticizes the deputy director of the prison. As a human being, I am in favor of him being executed for the murder of his girlfriend in Westphalia.

As an official, I am against the death penalty. As a convicted person "Forbidden objects for a man, many officials consider life imprisonment a harsher punishment than death. These men do not believe that Levern will ever emerge from remorse and insight. Every action and reaction is aimed precisely at wresting responsibility from him after 25 years. relatives of the sexual murderer. They are in an obviously similar situation. Nobody wants to have anything relevant. Contact would be completely possible. Even personal meetings between close family members and prisoners take place on Fire Island. Under these conditions, the prison management should not have any security problems.

Only those who feel well can have a visit permit. There are special small accommodations for meetings in the former monks' monastery. We have two accommodations where prisoners and their families can meet during the first ten years of prison once a year for three days after that, with good behaviour, there are two such visits per year. Visits are allowed for a maximum of two adults and one child. They must present documents proving that they are close relatives. Behind the kitchen is the bathroom and shower. They guarantee that a life sentence will not harm his wife or her parents.

We cannot guarantee anything. That is why each prisoner is carefully examined before a meeting. If we believe that there will be no problem, give the green light. There have already been incidents. Criminals have had enough, after all, the visitors are their wives, parents, children. We also review correspondence during the approval process. We make sure there are no Insults. We check everything. In Russia, in addition to Fire Island, there are five other high-security prisons. There are 2,000 men sentenced to life in prison. The high-security prison differs greatly from generalized penal camps. It is located about 1,000 kilometers southeast of Fire Island.

In the republic of Marie Dorin we are now entering a field in which only former state officials are imprisoned. The Spanish prison chief drives through the penal camp sitting on penal camps. Children are somewhat less serious than in high security prisons. Freedom of movement is much greater. Men live. in the so-called barracks Not counted They have also committed serious crimes Viktor Suyev The former police officer is here for double murder He was a member of a mafia clan The sentence is 17 years in prison They did it I did not kill a normal citizen. members of another group.

What did they do to them? Shots. Disappeared. In total, around 650,000 men are imprisoned in Russian prison camps. Roll call in the morning. The camp management checks several times a day whether all the prisoners are still there. The escape attempts here are the opposite. It is not uncommon for some people to dig tunnels in Fire Island's high-security prisons. Others want to use farm vehicles to clear their path. There are countless stories. The daily routine is strictly regulated. Breakfast, lunch, back to work, dinner, free time, night's rest eating barracks prisoners baking and cooking for the prisoners in most Russian prison camps there is a caste system those at the top include the bronze criminals in the second caste are common criminals Visalia both groups avoid the lowest caste in the penitentiary management and homosexuals there is also a hierarchy in the caste system yes, then I answer no.

We don't have boxes, we are all equal, everyone can put where they want. Yes of course. Of course, everyone who wants, our trainer will find it difficult to say if this answer is correct. Western camera crews do not have enough time to observe the men in prison and get a closer look, we are now in the so-called industrial zone. there is a sewing workshop and a pasta factory we also grow vegetables who you sell food to stay here textiles go to customers private companies pasta production from the prison camp itself, here is also one Parallel to high security In In prisons, only those who behave well are allowed to work, those who do not have a good record are condemned to sit still.

I like to work. Does time pass faster. What is the point of the work? Still, the job means good leadership. . Good leadership can mean probation. Early release in prison camps is absolutely realistic in high security prisons due to high security. So far there is no danger to the population. After the shift we return to the homes. No prisoners allowed Only those who submit unconditionally can hope to soon abandon this role. Back to the island of fire in Lake Neusiedl, northern Russia. A few prisoners do not have to serve life sentences traffickers thieves protection gangsters they take care of life sentences we have our own bakery here we bake bread for prisoners and sell it the camera fogs up due to the strong temperature difference outside - 17 inside around more 20 degrees slightly less dangerous prisoners bake and cook for the really tough kids this is our kitchen here the food is made for lifers good morning soup tuna salad meat it's hard to say if lifers will get today a kind of feast by his fellow prisoners because a western camera crew is there to save personnel costs the prisoners will be in russian prisons widely deployed cooks bakers heitzer electricians welders the list of jobs is long we have 53 prisoners here who keep the high security prison in operation prisoners, of course, are only allowed to work in areas that are not relevant to security those who are serving.

Those sentenced to life imprisonment here have food brought to their cells three times a day. Gathering them in a dining room is out of the question. It would be too dangerous. Many of those incarcerated on Fire Island do not believe in parole after 25 years. , so they have nothing to lose. They might surveil guards or attack other prisoners or try to take hostages to blackmail their freedom. Some men are dissatisfied with portion sizes. Put more meat on it. What's happening? I want more meat. Take your plate. I repeat, I don't want more noodles, no more noodles, some people sentenced to life in prison like to write complaints to the prosecutor that they treat them badly or don't give them hygiene products, it's all a lie, they're bored, they seek attention, the majority ignores the complaint as nonsense, but Western and Russian human rights organizations have a different opinion: According to Human Rights Watch and Memorial, arbitrariness and violence prevail in Russian prisons.

Due to the presence of Western journalists, only carefully selected men like Lewan are allowed to testify, who does not say a critical word about the Weimar 6 nor does he know very well that otherwise he would have to completely give up his slim hope of conditional freedom. What do you think about early release most often? Then you could get out of here as soon as possible. Parole after 25 years, most importantly good behavior, but the 25 year thing has never worked or honestly I don't know if your hope is unbroken. yes, I still have hope purely in the cell of pleasing myself, all choice is total submission.

Don't argue, just don't make mistakes. Yuri Ivanov knows the rules of the game that can lead to probation. From experience, with his first prison sentence for child abuse, the good leadership strategy worked, but between then and now there is a crucial difference. Levern used to be in an ordinary penal camp, today he is on the island of the damned, serving a sentence. life sentence for murder for particularly vile motives
