Evgeny Prigozhin said that by June 18, 32,000 former prisoners had returned from the special operation zone, whose contract with PMC Wagner expired.
According to him, some of these people committed new crimes — Prigozhin said that only 83 episodes were recorded. He also claims that, according to these statistics, the number of relapses is 80 times less than in the case of the release of convicts from the colony «without concluding a contract with the Wagner PMC.»
In March, Prigozhin confirmed that that one of the former prisoners, who returned from the NWO zone to his native village, brutally killed a pensioner. At the same time, he said then that «out of the thousands of those who came out– only 20 crimes.»
In the middle of this week, Prigozhin said that the number of losses of PMC «Wagner» amounted to 20 thousand people.
