The perpetrator turned out to be a 29-year-old native of Tuva named Ochur-Suge Mongush, who is a member of the Akhmat battalion. Journalists also managed to find out that the mockery of the Ukrainian soldier took place on the territory of the sanatorium "Privillya" in Luhansk region.
They managed to recognize the Russian first of all by his cowboy hat and bracelet. In addition, a video of torture captured an IKCO Samand car. Both the militant and the car appeared in at least five videos published by Russian propaganda resources.
