[edit] Valid reasoning? Citation?

The article contains the following sentence:

"Prison authorities turned a blind eye, since prisoner deaths would serve to reduce the overall prison population."

Is there a citation for this statement? Did whoever write it know it for a fact, for example, could not more prisoners have allowed for a greater budget which could have then been appropriated? How do we know that prisoners were not used for slave labor, so that allowing them to kill one another would have cut into the profits of the prison administration? Also, why would prison authorities turn a blind eye, if the "sukas" were their allies, as the article states?

[edit] Source?

"At the end of World War II, Stalin reneged on his promise and promptly sent those prisoners who had served in the military back to prison".

Actually after the ww2 a lot of those soldiers who had criminal past couldn't adapt to peace life and commited felony again. That's how they usually went back to prisons. It needs no fairytale about "Stalin reneging on his promise" - everything is much simplier. --Nekto 10:07, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

No offence but youre talking about a guy who killed millions of innocent ukrainians in a genocide and put thousands of innocent people in prison camps. I really also wish there were some sources for this page but Im not going to lie I could see Stalin having "reneged his promises." -Steve, unregistered nov 30 2006

Welcome Steve, and consider registering. On the subject, I hope we all realize that the "promise" was not offical in the first place and that Stalin's power at the time was absolute, and to get convicted, one did not need to commit a crime: one stuk was often enough. ←Humus sapiens ^ну? 11:30, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
