The Kushchevsky district court of Krasnodar Territory today sentenced a citizen of Ukraine for four years and a citizen of Russia for six years in prison on charges of slavery at an agricultural farm owned by the mother of Sergei Tsapok, the organizer of the murders of 12 people in the village of Kushchevskaya.
The defendants have not pleaded guilty.
According to the investigation, immigrant workers arrived at the village of Kushchevskaya from Ukraine at the end of April 2010. When they arrived at the farm, their passports were confiscated.
The investigation established that migrant workers were kept at the farm against their will, were severely beaten and had to work without salaries.
According to the investigators, the owner of the farm was not aware of the violations taking place on her property and therefore cannot be prosecuted.
