Cannibalism, Prisons and the Front Line - Inside Russia and Ukraine Conflict
What happens when you lose not just your freedom but your very identity?
This week on My Thoughts Exactly, Shiv takes us deep into the harrowing realities of wrongful imprisonment in a foreign land and how it ties into the chilling undercurrents of the Russia-Ukraine conflict.
Through Shiv’s raw and riveting account, we journey to Belarus, Ukraine and Russia, where his dream of building a business turned into a nightmare. A clash with local gangs spiralled into a terrifying ordeal—imprisoned on false charges of murder and cannibalism, stripped of his nationality, and cast into a prison teeming with criminals who defied comprehension. He narrates life behind bars, surrounded by hardened criminals and facing the constant threat of violence. His account of cannibalism, murder, and the brutality of the prison system is both shocking and heartbreaking.
From Neo-Nazis to gang members, Shiv paints a stark picture of a lawless system where brutality reigns supreme and the unthinkable becomes commonplace. These dangerous prisoners, later unleashed on the frontlines, embody the chaos and human cost of war, perpetuating a cycle of violence and destruction. Are they truly heroes or symbols of a deeper societal rot?
This episode is more than a tale of survival; it’s a reflection on the devastating ripple effects of conflict. Listen to Shiv’s unforgettable story and join the conversation about what war leaves behind.
