Russian torturer asked me if I wanted ‘quick death or beautiful death’, says Brit POW Aiden Aslin

A Brit captured by the Russians in Ukraine today details his remarkable five-month survival fight - and how his captors said his death could either be “quick” or “beautiful”.
In his first interview since being freed this week, brave Aiden Aslin, 28, tells The Sun on Sunday how he was beaten up, stabbed and forced to listen to Soviet songs in a tiny cell for 24 hours a day.
His terrifying ordeal only came to an end after ex-Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich brokered an extraordinary prisoner swap.
Aiden, reunited yesterday with his mother and his Ukrainian fiancée, admitted: “I never thought I’d get out alive.”
Notts-born Aiden had built a new life in Ukraine in 2018 - falling in love with Diane Okovyta and joining the marines.

Seems like Roman Abramovich paid media and Aidan good money to get good publicity. What a good guy! 😅

Considering Russian Rock and Roll is on your playlist I’m not at all surprised your calling this man a liar. Russians are detached from reality

Brave hero💗

he was lucky. i imagine how much torture has been going on in this war. terrible thing.

[@paintsilj]

He wasn't even in solitary confinement. Go and watch Mark John Duggan's interviews with him. ASLIN actually phoned him using a mobile. Yeah like the Russians were Going to allow a POW in solitary do that. Jeez some people are so gullible about Ukraine

@@paintsilj dont know wtf u imagine. i take his word for his life. and u...nah dont care

btw u say to me he couldnt have been in solitary the days he said coz his wife called him once? yer wrecked mentally

[@shaikh0087]

Trust me he was very polite and nice person from some captivities you cannot return without loosing 1-2 parts

[@michaelkoopman7274]

Oh yeah, how many Russians has lost 1 or more parts during captivity in a Ukranian POW camp? And not the parts due to combat! Solely from torturing as a pow by Ukranian guards.

Aiden I am pleased you are free. You sound very tired. You need a good holiday as do your family.Take Carexx

[@TheCyber91]

i don't know how he can be alive right now... if the russians left him alive there must have been an agreement... i think he is still alive because he wasn't captured by ukrainian soldiers or abzov battalion... i think this is the main reason.

[@jax46]

@@clivecopsey4477 he murdered civilians in another country. He is a murder. He is a failed mercenary. When foreign soldiers one day come to enforce your corrupt governments rule on you and your fellow civilians… remember who Aiden really was. Remember his decisions in Syria and Ukraine. There is no excuse for Ukraine to be shelling its own people. There is no excuse for UK citizens to be there… it is not your border or your ethnic people. Russia is a liberator and the UK is on the wrong side.. again. Maybe your countrymen will fight off the US mercenaries with your pocket knives and talk of the weather.

[@americasfavoritebrazilian2399]

You can tell how much weight he lost. The Americans said he was being hit on camera. Glad they all got out!
