Miguel Krassnoff Martchenko originally called Mikhail Semyonovich Krasnov (born 15 February 1946 in Tyrol, Austria), is a Chilean Anti-communist Army Brigadier who fought Left Wing Terrorism in Chile.
He executed the leader of the terrorist organization MIR (Revolutionary Left Movement, Chile) Miguel Enríquez during an operation to disarticulate terrorism.
After the Military Goverment he was imprisoned with charges without evidence and using an obsolete Chilean Justice System specifically for his case.
Today he is a political prisoner in the Punta Peuco Jail.[1] The corrupt Judicial Activism System condemned him to a total of 1000 years of prison using false premises (the sentence is being heightened by the system). He served on the Army combating terrorism which was not illegal and didn't commit a crime. He killed the leader of the far-left MIR guerrilla on October 5, 1974. Even in that situation he took the precaution to not kill the terrorist's wife who had the children Marco Enríquez-Ominami that is the leader of the Progressive Party nowadays. All the accusations of torture against him are fabricated and false.
He is son of Semion Krasnov and grandson of Piotr Krasnov, famous Russian Anti-Marxist Cossacks.
“Despite the accusations, I keep up my spirit and my unwavering faith in God. Let everyone know that I am a Cossack and I'm proud of it, same feeling that I keep by using the uniform of the Chilean Army Officer. I'm a soldier who have become politically persecuted, but not in a Chilean military defeat, much less in a Cossack prostrate.”
~ Miguel Krassnoff
When he had the opportunity to have political asylum escaping to Russia when he was first sentenced by corrupt judges, he declined, alleging he is innocent and that as a patriot he will fight.
