Ilya Yashin was placed in a punishment cell for 10 days for taking off his jacket

As Ilya Yashin’s support team reports, on Wednesday, after a meeting with his mother, Yashin was summoned to a disciplinary commission. They informed him that he was sentenced to 10 days in a punishment cell because he removed his jacket before sitting down at the breakfast table.

"Obviously, a jacket taken off before breakfast is only a formal reason to draw up a report on the identified violation. The real reason is the ongoing pressure on political prisoners, their deliberate isolation not only from the outside world, but also from other convicts, an attempt to deprive, suppress, break their will,” the politician’s support group commented.

Also, supporters of Ilya Yashin note that a few hours before being placed in a punishment cell, the colony where the politician is being held was visited by the head of the regional Federal Penitentiary Service.
