This section contains documents, videos and other evidence of torture in Russia. Gulagu.net experts, based on more than 8 years of human rights work, extensive experience, studied thousands of volumes of various criminal cases and terabytes of video archive from the institutions of the Federal Penitentiary Service, responsibly declare that the problem of torture and humiliation is systemic in nature and in order to solve this problem, it is necessary to reform both the Federal Penitentiary Service and, consequently, - judicial system. Torture, as part of the power machine, was inherited by Russia from the NKVD and the GULAG of the USSR, and if the signs on the facades of prisons have already been changed, then we still have to change the repressive essence of the system and make it more humane.
