According to Yashin via his Telegram channel, the formal reason for the punishment was that he got up from his bed in the barracks allegedly 3 minutes after the command “rise”.

Now the politician will spend 15 days “in the familiar concrete punishment cell”.

The real reason lies in the decision of the administration to disrupt the meeting with my parents, which I was legally entitled to,” Yashin explained. – The three-day visit was supposed to start on Monday. But on Friday they closed me in the detention centre, which excludes communication with my family.

In addition, Yashin stated that all his books, except for the Bible, were taken away from him, “for a fortnight they do not give him letters”, as well as constant searches and unmotivated seizure of a towel purchased in the shop at the colony
