Russian neo-Nazi youth gang jailed for race-hate spree that killed 27

[quote]FOUR Russian neo-Nazis were handed life sentences on yesterday for the murder of 27 youths in a 2007-2008 spree that shocked Moscow and led to tougher hate crime laws.
The court also convicted several of the 13 gang members of terrorism for plotting a suburban Moscow train station bombing that was uncovered in time by the police.
The court handed 10- to 23-year prison terms to eight members of the group while one person received a suspended sentence for cooperating with the investigation.
The Nationalist-Socialist Society was a legally registered organisation when it began its hunt on young ethnic minorities who arrived in the Russian capital from southern Muslim republics and the Central Asian states.
Russian media reports said at least one of the attacks was videotaped then distributed on Russian nationalist websites.
An outcry from human rights groups over these and similar attacks prompted the Kremlin to call for a review of Russian nationalist groups' links to hate crime.
The Kremlin had initially provided informal backing to some of these organisations as part of its drive to improve young people's interest in politics.
The Nationalist-Socialist Society was formally banned in February 2010 and several similar groups have since been forced to disband.
But they maintain a strong presence on Russian social media networks and often manage to bring out large numbers of supporters for protests outside foreign embassy in times of diplomatic tensions with the West.
Monday's hearing received national media attention and saw the group walk into court chanting neo-Nazi and anti-Semitic slogans and repeatedly jeering the judge from the dock.
One member of the gang wore a black t-shirt with a skull and bones while others wore surgical masks to hide their identities. Several had shaved heads.
Presiding judge Nikolai Tkachuk quickly read through the 250 page verdict before delivering his sentence and calling gang leader Lev Molotkov "an extraordinary danger to Russian society".
The father of one of the defendants broke down in tears after the verdict while the group chanted in unison: "Our conscience stands above the law."
The neo-Nazi leader had pleaded not guilty. "We plan to appeal,'' defence attorney Maria Malakhovskayasaid. "This ruling was simply not objective."
Her client -- a 21-year old unemployed man identified as one of the senior gang members -- received 20 years behind bars.
A recent spike in ethnic violence prompted the Russian authorities to crack down on neo-Nazi groups and ban some organisations that had operated in the open for years.
The rise in ethnic tension in Moscow and other major cities spilled over in December when a massive riot broke out near the Kremlin following the murder of a nationalist supporter of a Moscow football club by a Muslim suspect.
Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin later raised eyebrows by visiting the grave of the slain football fan in the company of several nationalist organisations that took part in December's rioting.
But both he and President Dmitry Medvedev have identified racism as one of the country's more pressing social concerns and chaired various meetings designed to address Russian xenophobia.

I have a friend from Russia who said that if you have a non-tribal tattoo in a Russian prison, you get raped.
True story.

Murder 27 people and get 10-23 years? What the fuck?

It's still longer and harsher than Swedish jailtime!
For example, one man who raped and murdered a woman got 10 years, and he will probably get out 5 years earlier if he behaves. All while living in a cell like this:

So the punishment for rape and murder here is 5 years in a nice apartment with access to work, TV, musical instruments etc.

Besides the ridiculously short sentence, the access to TV, work and Music is a good thing, its an effective correctional system.

Yeah you're right. But it just feels weird that prisoners seem to have it better than a lot of poor people.

Russia probably isn't a good place to be a Nazi.
Why does Russia have so many Neo-Nazi's that pop up in the news?

Believe it or not it's kind of more accepted then people being gay over there.

SPOILER: You won't find any.
I also saw this documentary where this asian guy got his head chopped off by a skinhead, while on his way back home in russia.
Fucking nazis

Though I don't think these nazis have a problem standing up for themselves in prison. So what I'm saying is that I don't think they are gonna get killed/sodomized in prison. Maybe the weakest if any.

Nono we said after FIVE years, not some bitch getting off scott-free because she's young.
I was hoping it would be a twenty year sentence for each murder

Of course, not all cells are like that. But half at least.
