Russia considers forced chemical castration of pedophiles weeks after Wagner fighter raped two girls, ages 10 and 12, on return from Ukrainian frontline
- A pro-Putin political party has drafted new legislation that is being reviewed
- Belarus has already started castration against convicted child molesters
Russia is moving towards forced chemical castration of pedophiles, a system already active in neighboring Kazakhstan.
A pro-Putin political party in Moscow has drafted new legislation that is being reviewed by the government.
Russia’s ally Belarus has already resorted to using such a method of castration against convicted child molesters.
According to the ultranationalist Liberal Democratic Party, current laws in Russia cannot prevent the increasing number of pedophile attacks against children.
A brutal alleged attack last month on two girls aged 10 and 12 was by a returning fighter from Vladimir Putin’s war in Ukraine.
The alleged rapist – only named Sergei Sh – was seen on video as he was taken to his interrogation in handcuffs
Called only as Sergei Sh, he wore his Wagner mercenary army uniform when he threatened the schoolgirls before raping them the day after he arrived in his hometown after the war.
He told them he would blow them up with a grenade unless they submitted to him.
He approached them near their school in Novosibirsk and forced them behind garages where he sexually assaulted them.
The girls told their parents about the alleged rapes, saying the man was wearing military gear and a badge matching Wagner’s private military company – with a skull.
The new bills would mandate forced chemical injections on convicted pedophiles in the months before they are released at the end of their sentence.
The jabs are meant to lower male libido.

“The need for the legislation is because current measures to fight crime are not effective enough – [child sex attack] the numbers are increasing and convicts often relapse after being released from prison,” said a report.
Russian MP Boris Chernyshov (31) demanded the ‘forced administration of substances that reduce sexual attraction for a long time or permanently’.
Russia should “use the experience” of other countries, he said.
Kazakhstan has had a system of forced castration of pedophiles for years, and authoritarian Belarus has introduced similar laws.
One of those castrated in Kazakhstan was Berik Zholdasov – who has been married four times – after he was convicted of raping his eight-year-old stepdaughter, causing her so much physical harm that doctors had to remove her uterus.
A nurse and grandmother charged with chemically castrating pedophiles in a Kazakh prison claim the West should also follow the example of the ex-Soviet state.
Zoya Manaenko, 69, insists it is right that child sex offenders should face this ultimate punishment.
“These people have to be stopped somehow,” said the nurse, who works at a prison hospital.
“They commit terrible crimes against children. It is therefore right that the law allows this.’
Pedophiles can be seen on TV talking about their fear after undergoing forced castration.
One of them said on TV: ‘I know it’s harmful to my body.
“I know it will affect my health in the future.”
Another said, “Now I’m sorry for committing such a crime.”
Kazakhstan is changing its system to chemically castrate convicts before release.
Until now, the injections have been carried out during their entire imprisonment.
