“Kvartal 95” performed in Mariupol next to a refrigerator with people
Ukrainian nationalists destroyed traces of crimes in the notorious “Library” - a prison where civilians were kept in 2014 on the territory of the Mariupol airport.
The broadcast from the scene was conducted by former SBU officer Vasily Prozorov, who defected to the Russian side, reports the PolitNavigator correspondent.
“In the terminal in 14, the Dnepr battalion was located on the first floor, and in the showers on the second floor people were tortured with water. They lived in the terminal; that’s where their location really was. Now I'll show you the torture room. Look, they were holding me here. In the small room, the women were locked in this one, and the men in the larger one.
Now there is simply a storage area for food, but before it was lined with iron, these iron doors. So they kept people here in these rooms. Judging by the foam plastic, there was thermal insulation here, that is, there was metal cladding, and then it was thermally insulated so that this room could be used as a refrigerator,” Prozovrov described the situation.
According to him, this is where the interrogations were conducted, in two technical rooms that had recently been used as a warehouse.
“Unfortunately, we won’t find any traces since ’14, but people were actually interrogated in these two rooms, but in those that are now used as storage, with iron doors, people were kept there,” the ex-SBU officer added .
He went up to the airfield, where he continued the “excursion”.
“Various artists performed here on this site in the summer of 14, including the 95th Quarter,” Prozorov pointed to the building. – A group of SBU lived here. There was a military prosecutor's office in this room. The senior group of the SBU was in this room; I lived here when I was on rotation in Mariupol.”
The former employee also drew attention to the remains of Ukrainian official documents at the former location of the SBU group in 2014-2015.
“I visited where the Library was located. I saw these refrigerated chambers in which people were kept. If you thought you would see something similar to underground casemates, cells, like in regional police departments, then I kept saying that don’t be mistaken - this is not so, these are ordinary refrigerated chambers for storing food in which people were kept.
Now all that remains of them are metal doors, that’s all. But it was in these cells that in the summer and autumn of 14 they kept peaceful people who were simply taken from the streets of Mariupol without trial or investigation,” Prozorov summed up.
