The Terror homecoming of Russian convicts freed to fight in Ukraine.

What happens when Russian convicts freed to fight in Ukraine return back home?.

“Thousands of criminals are walking our streets,” says Anna Pekaryova, whose grandmother was killed by a convicted murderer who fought for the Wagner paramilitary force in Ukraine and returned to Russia a free man.

Communities across Russia have been brutalized by crimes perpetrated by these returning convicts, according to a review of court documents, interviews with friends and relatives of suspects and victims, and reports in Russian media.

Rights activists confidently and emotionally said dozens more go unreported.
