Conscripts were pressured to sign military contracts with the Ministry of Defence.
The pressure included physical violence, threats, and intimidation.
One specific incident involved a soldier named Stepan being taken to a corridor and beaten, including being struck in the solar plexus.
Commanders did not accept written refusals from conscripts.
Copies of signed documents were not provided to families.
Money in the amount of hundreds of thousands of rubles was deposited into soldiers' accounts after signing contracts.
The coercion occurred before the oath of allegiance.
Relatives from Leningrad, Vologda, Perm, Primorsky Krai, and Sakhalin regions reported similar experiences.
Families are seeking legal action and have contacted military prosecutors, the Investigative Committee, and the Ministry of Defence.
