An international investigation has revealed that the body of Ukrainian journalist Viktoria Roshchyna, who died in Russian captivity, was returned to Ukraine missing several internal organs, potentially to conceal the cause of death.
According to a joint investigation by Forbidden Stories and 13 international media outlets, Roshchyna’s body was transferred to Ukraine on February 14, 2025, as part of a repatriation operation involving the return of 757 fallen Ukrainians. Russian documents marked the body, listed as number 757, as an “unidentified male” with a reference note: “СПАС.”
Such actions, if confirmed, could be subject to international prosecution and sanctions.
Forgive me if I don’t hold my breath… 🙄
Actually Putin is already a wanted man for war crimes, and he cannot travel to most countries without being arrested.
Hungary has already hosted a wanted war criminal. And the US has threatened the ICC for doing their job. So maybe that’s two possible destinations for Vladimir?
“Achually, she was a journalist, not a prisoner of war. So we can fuck her shit up.”
- Russian propaganda, probably
I don’t know where you live, but I do know there’ll probably be a second front in this particular war in a not too far into the future. I have the feeling that the news channels in the US perhaps leave out some of what is happening in the Baltic sea, for example.
Or the fact that we’ve been preparing to go fuck them up for the past few years. The rest of Europe is starting to wake up as well. Nobody wants to be next.
I woNder whAt kind of Zany person commIts war crimes against journalists.
How’re them 7OCT hostages doing these days? I haven’t been keeping track. All back safe and sound, are they?
You are totally right and Putin totally doesn’t give a shit.
Putin should be arrested and tried for genocide and war crimes the second he steps out of Russia, but since he’s apparently already dying I am afraid we’ll never have the pleasure of seeing the asshole in a little jail cell
Same for Netanyahu btw…
Who wants to out down some money in when countries just stop following the Geneva Convention because it’s “a regulatory burden”? Price is Right rules closest without going over.
Literally President Trump has said that, I believe in his first term. Something about how there shouldn’t be rules in war, and whatever happens/whoever happens to be in the crossfire, happens.
From another source:
The investigation revealed that upon examination in Ukraine, it was discovered that several internal organs were missing, including the brain, eyeballs, and part of the larynx.
According to the investigative team, the body showed signs of an autopsy conducted in Russia. An international expert suggested that the missing organs could have been removed to obscure evidence of death by strangulation or suffocation.
Sounds like they mutilated the body to cover up how she died.
I thought they removed her organs, so that they can use them for transplant surgeries, since organs are expensive afaik. But seems thats not the case here since brain, eyes, larynx cannot be transplanted
Someone brough up a theory that it’s a “symbolic punishment” for a journalist:
remove the eyes so you cannot see
remove the brain so you cannot think
remove the larynx so you cannot speak (the larynx contains the vocal cords)
That makes much more sense because unless some classified shit was tested on her (in which case they probably wouldn’t have returned her body at all) there wouldn’t be any reason to hide the cause of her death. If she was hanged on a short rope or strangled which the (lack of) evidence points towards then that’s kinda not worse than a journalist being murdered any other way. Wouldn’t justify all the fuss at least.
I’m not sure what it says about them that they have this capacity to surprise me every time I heard what next depravity they did.
Things to do to Putin when he’s caught:
- Remove internal organs.
- Poke one eye out and fill the hole with siracha sauce jalapeno pickle vinegar, and lemon…
Cannot wait for the strongly worded letter and the big story about Putin promenading himself in an ICC country next year.
