Sergey Maduev height - How tall is Sergey Maduev?

On July 10, 1995, the St. Petersburg City Court sentenced Sergey Maduev to death for two of the murders, and many of his other crimes. However, due to the introduction of the moratorium, the death penalty was replaced with life imprisonment. Initially, Maduev was housed in Kresty Prison and then in Novocherkassk, and in November 2000, he was transferred to the Black Dolphin Prison. On December of that same year, he died from heart failure and diabetes complications.

Maduev achieved notoriety after an unsuccessful attempt to escape from Kresty Prison in March 1991, with the help of a female investigator whom he had seduced.

On May 3, 1991, the convoy was supposed to take Maduev to Moscow, where two of his accomplices were already serving sentences - the Murzabekov brothers. Unexpectedly for the guards, Sergey pulled out a revolver from his bosom, shot at the wall and ordered to be released. He tried to run away, shooting at Major Ermolaev, who was later barely saved. Sergey was captured, and investigators began started an inquiry into how he had acquired the gun. It turned out that it was a revolver stolen from a safe in the prosecutor's office, with which Maduev had committed his murders in Leningrad and Tashkent.

In January 1990, Maduev and Chernyshev arrived in Tashkent, planning to commit a robbery on the next day. The brigands were strongly resisted, however, and Chernyshev was wounded. Instead of helping his companion, Sergey killed him and the homeowner with a pistol. The day after, Maduev was detained and handcuffed by a policeman at the Tashkent railway station. Suddenly, the hardened criminal took out a grenade from his inner pocket, demanding to be released. After much persuasion, he agreed to be sent to the police station, where, on his orders, the officer burned Maduev's notebook. The police officers then disarmed him and took the grenade, only to discover that it was a dummy.

On June 6, 1989, Maduev and Chernyshev committed a double murder with the aim of robbery in the Astrakhan Oblast. After this, Maduev travelled around the country: in the Uzbek SSR, he stole 200,000 rubles from some thieves in law's obtshak, flying under the criminals' radar. Then, Maduev robbed a Georgian thief in law, whose clan later declared war on him. In the same year, Sergey committed a number of robberies in Leningrad, one of which ended with a severe wound to the victim. She died in February 1990, when Maduev had already been arrested. Soon after that, Sergey shot and killed a doorman in a Leningrad cafe, in front of tens of people. After that, he turned around and asked: "Maybe someone else wants to?".

In 1988, Maduev was transferred to an open prison, from which he immediately fled and was put on a wanted list. At first, a wave of impudent thefts and robberies swept across the USSR - Maduev's tracks covered the areas of Siberia, the Moscow Oblast and Grozny. The Grozny robbery victim said that Maduev had prevented his accomplice from raping the man's daughter. In another instance, one of Maduev's victims suddenly felt ill, after which Sergey went to a pharmacy in a neighboring house and called an ambulance for the person he had just robbed. Thanks to this, the victim's life was saved.

Ali Arbievich Maduev was born in a Karaganda prison, in the Kazakh SSR, the fourth child of a Chechen man convicted of resisting deportation and a Korean woman convicted of speculation. After his release, Maduev's father abandoned the family. Sergey began to steal at the age of six, and in August 1974, he received his first prison term by the Karasay District Court in Almaty Region, whom gave him 6 years for complicity of theft. After leaving prison in 1980, Maduev engaged in various thefts and robberies, for which he was given another 15 years imprisonment in February 1981.

Sergey Alexandrovich Maduev (born Ali Arbievich Maduev on June 17, 1956 - December 10, 2000) was one of the famous Soviet brigands, as well as a serial killer. He had the nickname "Chernovets", but he called himself "Thief-outside-the-law". Despite beginning his criminal activity in the 1970s, his most high-profile crimes occurred at the very end of the 1980s, which is why Maduev today is regarded as one of the last criminals of the Soviet era.
