An auto repair shop in Russia-occupied Crimea is to be bulldozed down by the local court ruling after its owner refused to fix a Russian army truck, RIA Novosti cites Vladimir Konstantinov, a local Russian official.
A video where a crew of a Russian army truck with a Z symbol on it get rejected at an auto repair shop in the locality of Vydne appeared on social media on 13 June; the video was shot by a man of the truck’s crew who said the repair shop refused to replace a flat tire for them, saying they “do not help the military.” The owner of the repair shop later explained that his business was “simply unfit to serve trucks.”
“We found out that this body shop was an unauthorised building, it was constructed illegally. The owner is now obliged to demolish it in a 14 days time,” Konstantinov said. “Using the privileges of a great country such as ours requires obeying the law. He might not like the authorities, but he has to respect them. I warn people like him who wish to mess with Russia against doing this.”
