Criminal cases have been opened against two Russian servicemen from the “zeroers” list over more than 100 episodes

Officers Pavel Gudochkin (call sign “Boyets”) and Gennady Kazakov (“Ermak”), who became figures in Vyorstka’s special project about executions in the Russian army, have had criminal cases opened against them, the Telegram channel “Nezygar” noticed.

Vyorstka found the case cards for Gudochkin and Kazakov on the website of the 235th Garrison Military Court. According to them, cases against the servicemen were opened over more than 100 episodes. Gudochkin will be tried on 46 episodes, and Kazakov on 62.

These include abuse of office, taking bribes, murders and attempted murders, extortion, theft, illegal trafficking in weapons and explosives, as well as theft or extortion of weapons.

According to Vyorstka, servicemen who had done something wrong were sent to Gudochkin’s company, after which they were sent to the line of combat contact, where instead of evacuation they were met with execution. Kazakov, together with other servicemen, was accused by fellow soldiers of “zeroing out” people and covering up those crimes.

🟦Earlier, Vyorstka wrote that on June 4 the same 235th Garrison Court received the case against sniper Aleksandr Tonilin (call sign “Toni”) of the 272nd Motor Rifle Regiment of the 1st Tank Army, who also became a figure in Vyorstka’s special project about executions in the Russian army. He will be tried on 29 similar episodes.

🟦In October 2025, Vyorstka told the story of Tonilin, Gudochkin, Kazakov, and other criminals in the project “Zeroers”. It is devoted to servicemen who kill, torture to death, or send their fellow soldiers into deadly assaults.
