It is reported that the verdict was also appealed by the lawyers of the four convicts and the lawyer of the victim inmate Yevgeny Makarov.

On November 19, the court acquitted the former interim chief of IK-1 Dmitry Nikolaev and his deputy Igit Mikhailov in the case of beating up Makarov.

11 defendants received real sentences ranging from three years to four years and three months in prison.

Six of them were released in the courtroom, and the time spent in jail was credited to them.
