PMC "Wagner" began to recruit patients of psychiatric hospitals
Engaged in conflict with the Defense Ministry and cut off from the possibility of recruiting prisoners, the head of the PMC "Wagner" Evgeny Prigozhin has switched to the psychiatric hospitals.
An announcement that now he does not need a certificate from a psychiatrist and a narcologist, as well as a fluorogram to join the Wagner, was posted in one of the groups of PMCs in social networks. Information about their willingness to hire people who have been treated in the neuropsychiatric hospital was confirmed by recruiters of the PMCs.
Journalists from the publication The Moscow Times, under the guise of one of the volunteers, contacted the hotline of "Wagner" and reported that he had been treated in a neuropsychiatric hospital for a nervous breakdown. In response, they sent a formal instruction with the requirements for recruits and offered to self-evaluate themselves according to it. "Read the instructions, if everything is okay, we are waiting for you," said the recruiter of PMCs.
According to the instructions, the PMC does not accept people "suffering from serious illnesses, preventing the performance of tasks, suffering from drug addiction, as well as those with hepatitis B and C." However, no certificates are required, as follows from the same instructions, a serious medical examination is not carried out upon arrival on site: they only take a rapid blood test and urine test for drugs.
