Kirov UFSIN denied information about the death of Strelkov (Girkin)

      Today, on March 12, information appeared on the Network that Igor Strelkov (Girkin), the former Minister of Defense of the DPR, who is currently serving a sentence in the Kirovo-Chepetsk penal colony, committed suicide. The Federal Penitentiary Service for the Kirov region denied this information, calling it fake.

      "Information disseminated from the Internet about the death of Igor Girkin in the correctional facility of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia in the Kirov region is fake," RIA Novosti wrote with reference to the agency's message.

      The lawyer of the former Minister of Defense of the DPR, Alexander Molokhov, also denied rumors about the death of his client. "At one o'clock in the afternoon I was at his colony, he felt great and was going to the sauna, at two o'clock I went to the head of the colony, congratulated him on his professional holiday, everything was calm," reports RBC with reference to Molokhov.

      In January 2024, Girkin was convicted of publicly calling for extremism and sentenced to four years in prison in a general regime colony, and he was banned from administering websites for three years. The Court of Appeal later upheld this decision. Girkin was transferred to correctional colony No. 5 in Kirovo-Chepetsk, where the former security forces are located. On January 22, 2025, the Kirovo-Chepetsky District Court considered a petition to replace the unserved part of the imprisonment with a more lenient type of punishment, but refused to satisfy the petition. According to his lawyer Alexander Molokhov, the court made the decision based on the characteristics of the colony, where Strelkov is listed as a person who adheres to extremist views and has not repented of his deeds.
