In a military unit in Alabino near Moscow, Russian mobilized servicemen beat up “gramps”, who were trying to rob them of their gear and cell phones, Baza reports.
According to Baza, the soldiers in the unit demanded that the freshly mobilized men give them their smartphones and some of their clothes. However, the “newcomers” responded by force and started a fight. About 20 contract soldiers were beaten, they locked themselves in one of the rooms and called the police. The military police arrived at the unit, followed by officers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Baza claims that ultimately none of the “gramps” filed a complaint with the police.

For example, in St. Petersburg, the police handed to a local resident a summons addressed to her uncle, requiring him to come to the military registration and enlistment office, although the uncle had died nine years ago.
