It is without the ability to go outside normally, to talk. Communication was once every 10 days, he could go outside for 15-20 minutes a day. For the first two weeks, I could not wash, I washed my clothes only after three weeks. There was a non-working toilet in the cell, I had to use an iron bowl to draw from the faucet and flush," Vlad said.
He said that his tasks included cleaning the premises where interrogations of both civilians and military personnel were conducted.
"They asked where the weapons were. Inhuman interrogation methods were applied to the prisoners - torture (electric shocks, beatings). I saw and heard everything. They did not torture me. The first days were very difficult. The very first day when I was taken, I immediately understood that everything was very serious, I understood that I should behave calmly, restrained as much as possible, and agree to everything that was offered to me, not to be aggressive, with a more or less friendly attitude, so that I would be treated behaved neutrally so that I was invisible," the boy said.
