A report details two murder cases in Achinsk, Russia, where the accused allegedly avoided prosecution by signing military contracts. In one case, Semen was fatally stabbed during his wedding reception after intervening in a fight. His killer reportedly joined the Ministry of Defense instead of facing trial. In another incident from winter 2025, a man who killed his wife was also able to join the military before a verdict was reached.

The report highlights the shock among residents regarding the accused's ability to evade punishment through military enlistment, a phenomenon described as 'amnesty through the special military operation.' Journalist Olesya Ostapchuk investigated these cases for 'Reporter's Stories.'
