He stated this in his Telegram.

“I was taught criminal law at the university many years ago.

And they said that criminal punishment consists of two elements: punishment, on the one hand, and conditions for the correction and re-education of the guilty person, on the other,” Medvedev said.

He emphasized that "only the death penalty is a pure punishment for obvious reasons."

“According to the principle of “life for life”, known since the Old Testament times (Leviticus, 24:20).

The Ukrainian bastards who shot Russian servicemen should not suffer any other punishment, except for what is pure punishment.

Even if it takes years to find them,” said the Deputy Chairman of the Security Council.

On November 18, Russia demanded that international organizations condemn the crime of the Ukrainian military who shot the captured Russian military, and conduct a thorough investigation into the incident.

The Russian Ministry of Defense has said that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and his henchmen will have to answer for every tortured Russian prisoner of war.

The Investigative Committee of Russia opened a criminal case after the massacre.
