Last minute news! 2 British and 1 moroccan mercenaries who were captured in Mariupol by DPR forces as they were fighting with ukrainian forces (including the nazi Azov Battallion), have just been sentenced to DEATH, for mercenarism and attempting to illegally seize power in the DPR, by the Supreme Court of the Donetsk Peoples Republic, in Donetsk. We are waiting for more details.

UPDATE: The 2 british mercenaries are Aiden Aslin and Shaun Pinner. Both exmembers of the british army, Aiden had fought in Syria against ISIS and the Assad government with the Rojava kurds (the YPG), while Shaun had fought in Northern Ireland during the troubles (fighting against the IRA) and in Bosnia during the imperialist invasion, both times as an official british soldier, while Aiden fought both in Syria and Ukraine as a mercenary. So yeah, 2 imperialist pigs.

Aiden also had a Twitter account that constantly spread russophobia and bragged about killing russians. Aiden claims (he started claiming this only after he was captured by the DPR) his twitter account was stolen by a friend while he was on the frontlines in Mariupol and that he didnt post that stuff. Truth be told, its true that his twitter account “CossackGundi” is still posting, so its clear that, at least since his capture, someone else has accessed and used his account. I leave it up to you to decide whether you believe him or not. No information until now on the moroccan guy.

UPDATE 2: The convicts have 1 month to appeal the sentence to the Supreme Court of the DPR. If the appeal is accepted, their death sentence may be commuted to life in prison or 25 years in prison.

    Same. Im generally against the death penalty, but there are situations in which its necessary, such as a revolution or a war for example. If you have spies, mercenaries, traitors, etc and you dont have a proper prison infrastructure to hold them, what are you gonna do? Let them go? Its not ideal but its what it is. And besides bourgeois/nazi scum deserves it.

      Watch as the West all of a sudden throw out the notions of “right to” “judicial autonomy” and “self determination”

      Guess it doesn’t count if it’s used against them.
