Helsinki District Court has sentenced Voislav Torden, 38, to life in prison for war crimes committed in Ukraine in 2014. Torden was convicted on four counts of war crimes, while one charge was dismissed due to lack of evidence. The court found that he led a military unit that ambushed Ukrainian soldiers and executed at least one wounded prisoner. The act was deemed equivalent to murder due to its brutality, warranting a life sentence.
That or he is stupid, had big hubris and thought he would get away with it just because his passport had different name on it. Since should he have gotten past Finland, he would have likely been caught in France or so on. Whomever (likely suspects would be Ukrainian or American intelligence) tipped off Finnish law enforcemen could have just as easily have later on tipped of French security services “hey this guy is in Nice, wanna go arrest a war criminal?”.
