LDPR leader Zhirinovsky announced the “Stalinist camp system” in the work of the FSIN 
The structure of the FSIN is still a “Stalinist camp system” therefore, the work of the service still cannot be adjusted, and a change in leadership is unlikely to change anything. This is how LDPR chairman Vladimir Zhirinovsky in Telegram reacted to the resignation of the head of the Federal Penitentiary Service Alexander Kalashnikov.
According to the politician, the situation will change when other people come to the system. The leader of the Liberal Democratic Party noted that employees must be recruited at a general competition. In addition, in his opinion, it is necessary to get rid of the “cane” system that pushes workers to abuse.
Kalashnikov was dismissed from his post as head of the Federal Penitentiary Service on November 25 by a decree of Russian leader Vladimir Putin. Instead of him, the Deputy of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia Arkady Gostev was appointed to this position. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that Kalashnikov was removed from office after a personal appeal.
Kalashnikov's resignation occurred against the backdrop of a torture scandal in Russian colonies. Earlier in November, the human rights project Gulagu.net showed footage of detainees being bullied at the hospital of the Federal Penitentiary Service in the Saratov Region.
