The detainee publicly confessed to the arson of five cars in Krasnodar.

Krasnodar law enforcement published a video in which a 34-year-old suspect in the arson of five cars publicly confessed to his actions.

According to the Krasnodar police, late in the evening on July 24, law enforcement detained a 34-year-old newcomer from the Pavlovsky district, who was suspected of setting fire to five cars and one scooter. The cars were parked in the yard of a high-rise building on Krasny Partizans Street.

"The man was in a state of alcohol intoxication and could not explain the motives for his actions," the Krasnodar police explained on their Telegram channel on July 25.

A video was attached to the post, in which the detainee publicly repented of his actions.

"I admit my guilt, I repent of my actions," he said in the video.

"Caucasian Knot" also reported that on March 26, 2025, powerlifter Vladimir Vanyan from Krasnodar, detained after an obscene remark about FSB officers during a stream on his YouTube channel, apologized to law enforcement and stated that "he would serve with a weapon in hand in the SVO".

On March 19, 2025, stand-up comedian Artemiy Ostanin from Yeysk apologized for a joke about a disabled person without legs. A criminal case was opened against Ostanin, as the investigation saw his words as an insult to a participant in the SVO. The comedian himself stated that he was joking about an ordinary beggar.

At the initiative of the head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, the practice of public apologies has spread beyond the republic and into other regions of Russia. More about this practice can be read in the "Caucasian Knot" reference "The fashion for apologies: from Chechnya to the farthest outskirts". "Caucasian Knot" also keeps a "Chronicle of public apologies in the Caucasus", and news about the latest apologies is posted on the thematic page "Whom the Caucasus makes to apologize".
