1/ Russia is reported to have created a secret high-security prison in Moscow, possibly for the detention of generals and high-ranking MOD officials. A building in the 2nd Western District Military Court was redesigned in late 2022 to incorporate cells and interrogation rooms. ⬇️

2/ The VChK-OGPU Telegram channel has published apparently leaked architectural plans and photographs of the facility, which it says is located next to the notorious Lefortovo prison in central Moscow. The building has been used by the military district court for many years.

3/ According to VChK-OGPU, "in October 2022 the chairman of the 2nd Western District Military Court V.A. Osin concludes a contract with the general director of "Asteria" Ltd., a certain A.A. Saidov, that the building should be urgently waterproofed in the basement.

4/ "The technical order is accompanied by photos of the place of work.

A few days later, the same chairman Osin signs another contract with LLC "PROF ENGINEERING".

5/ "This time it is about creating a ventilation system for the basement, working out a solution for forced extraction of air and installing all this stuff.

6/ "The technical task specifies the scheme of the basement: in total there will be 9 rooms, they are united by a system of passages and corridors, and numbers 2-6 are cells for detainees.

7/ "It is worth noting the urgency with which the work should be carried out - "not later than 31.12.2022"."

8/ It's not clear who if anybody is being held there. However, there have certainly been a number of high-profile scandals involving senior military and civilian defence officials over the past year, including the recent disappearance of Air Force chief General Sergey Surovikin.

9/ It would therefore be logical for the Russian government to seek to deal with such sensitive cases in a specialised facility, away from the higher-profile detention facilities such as Lefortovo. /end
