Drunk Russian stole a snowmobile in the tundra and threatened the shift worker n

A resident of Yamal, a representative of the indigenous small-numbered people of the North, was sentenced to three years in a strict regime colony for stealing a snowmobile and threatening to kill shift workers. This follows from the verdict of the Yamal court.

The incident occurred on January 25, 2024 in the car-town of the oil company, located in the tundra, 61 kilometers from the village of Yamburg.

Being in a state of strong alcoholic intoxication, the man stole the Buran ADE service snowmobile and began to drive around the territory. When the director of the enterprise tried to collect the keys and asked the hijacker to calm down, the attacker refused, saying that the object was on his land.

He began threatening employees, promising that his relatives would arrive in ten snowmobiles, “all will be cut and maimed.”.

The shift guards took the threat seriously, as they knew about the right of the representatives of the KMNS to keep weapons. In order to avoid escalation in the conditions of remoteness from civilization, the director was forced to temporarily return the keys to the bujan and order employees to leave the territory before the police arrived.

Initially, the Nadymsky District Court appointed the defendant five and a half years in prison, but after appealing and reviewing the case, the term was reduced to three years.

The court took into account that the defendant fully admitted guilt and repented, but took into account two of his previous convictions, including for intentional infliction of grave bodily harm.
