Prigozhin explained why PMC “Wagner” does not take “lowered” prisoners

The press service of the Concord company published the response of the founder of PMC Wagner, entrepreneur Yevgeny Prigozhin, to a request from 72.ru about the reasons for sending prisoners “with low social status” to the special operation zone in a group separate from other fighters. Journalists also noted that some Tyumen convicts, who are called “offended”, were denied inclusion in the lists to be sent to the SVO.

“All societies have certain rules by which they live,” Prigogine explained. He noted that according to the camp wording, such prisoners are called “”roosters”, “offended”, “lowered”, “forced”, “combs”” and other prisoners are not recommended to “greet them, chifir, take any things from them for use, to sleep with them in the same aisle or on the same bunk.

“That is, all of the above acts are “zapodlyakovy”, doing it is dirty,” Prigogine continued, noting that the rest of the prisoners all communicate together and live in the same society.

According to him, during the hostilities it is very difficult to separate these categories of citizens, since it is impossible to make a “boy howitzer battery”, “peasant DRG” or “cock machine-gun crew”.

“In order to avoid these inconveniences, we do not take “roosters” to Wagner PMC,” the businessman confirmed.

At the same time, he added that it was recommended to form a “separate” cock division” from such prisoners. He expressed confidence that this unit “will show a high fighting spirit.”

“In short, there are no “roosters” among the Wagner PMC fighters, and I have no information about other units,” Prigozhin summed up.
