When he was left alone,”Basti” opened the cell door and asked whether he was still alive, and verbally assaulted him. After this he took off his shirt and started beating him first with hands and after – with a rubbish bin. As the convict explained, soon he was transferred to a quarantine cell where there are beds, he was striped down and told to swear at so-called “thieves” which he refused to do. Because of the refusal, as he said, he was ordered to stand naked and warned not to put on his clothes. According to the convict, “Ango”, “Beshkena” and some Vakho entered the cell. As he said, he was raped after which around an hour and a half later “Kosa”, and “Beshkena” again came into the cell and again asked for cooperation otherwise threatened him that they would rape him with a truncheon.
