The court will not release the Kaluga arsonist of the house and barn

The court denied parole to a 44-year-old man serving a sentence for setting fire to a residential building and outbuildings in the Moscow region.

When considering the petition, the position of the representative of the Kaluga prosecutor's office on supervision of compliance with the laws in correctional institutions was taken into account.

The crime occurred in December 2022. A man, out of personal hostility to the family of the victim, broke into someone else's house at night and set it on fire. The fire completely destroyed the building and the property inside. The next day, the attacker returned and set fire to two sheds, also destroying all their contents.

In April 2024, he was sentenced to three years in prison and served his sentence in a colony-settlement. In addition, the court ordered the convict to compensate the victim for property damage - about 900 thousand rubles.

After serving part of the sentence, the man asked for parole. However, the prosecutor opposed: in his opinion, the convict did not prove that he had corrected himself, and also did not take all necessary measures to compensate for the damage caused.

The court agreed with the arguments of the prosecutor's office and left the petition without satisfaction.

As told earlier “MK in Kaluga”, a resident of Obninsk will go on trial after online training for rights.
