The Voroshilovsky District Court of Volgograd in January 2026 convicted local resident Anton Sizykh for robbery: he seized someone else's car with threats. The car belonged to a man who was previously a citizen of Belarus, and then went to fight for Russia against Ukraine.
According to the case materials, the injured car owner previously held Belarusian citizenship. He signed a contract with the Ministry of Defense of Russia to go to war, and for this, he received Russian citizenship. On the front, he received a serious injury — several shrapnel wounds.
It was during his treatment at the Volgograd Regional Hospital for Veterans that he bought himself a car. A ward-mate, originally from Chita, was selling his 2008 Toyota Corolla for about $7000. The Belarusian, who had just received compensation for his injury, decided to buy the car.
When he bought it, he realized that his ward-mate had cheated him and sold him junk — the car immediately started consuming oil. So the Belarusian gave the "Toyota" to an auto electrician for repairs, and he himself began to look for someone to sell the car to. Through another ward-mate, he contacted a person who agreed to help sell the car. This person was Anton Sizykh.
Further, as the court established, Sizykh came to the auto electrician, stated that he had allegedly already bought the car, and demanded its return. The electrician refused — he was still owed money for the repairs. Then Sizykh, under the pretext of going to get money, persuaded the electrician to get into the car with him. On the way, he stopped the car and began to take the keys, threatening violence — saying that the electrician "would not live until morning" and his face would be smashed. The electrician, fearing for his life, handed over the keys. Sizykh drove off in the stolen car.
On the same day, the car, which had already been declared stolen, was noticed by a road patrol. Sizykh was at the wheel. He insisted that he had not stolen anything, and the car had been handed over to him voluntarily.
The court rejected this version. His guilt was confirmed by the testimonies of both victims — the car owner and the auto electrician — the testimonies of the road inspectors, and a surveillance camera recording near the electrician's house, which showed Sizykh not allowing the car to stop and driving off in it.
Sizykh did not admit his guilt. Given that he is a repeat offender with an unexpunged criminal record, he was sentenced to three years and ten months in a strict regime penal colony.
The car was returned to the Belarusian.
