The brother of a Nottinghamshire man who is being held as a prisoner of war by Russia says his eventual release "could all take, days, weeks, months". Aiden Aslin was captured while fighting in the Ukrainian Marines as is being used as a bargaining chip by Vladimir Putin's regime for the release of a pro-Russian politician being held in Ukraine.
Nathan Wood, a 25-year-old social care worker and brother to Mr Aslin, says he hopes they are treating him "like a prince". Concerns had been raised in Parliament over his treatment after a video, published on and then removed by YouTube, showed him speaking under duress.
Mr Aslin moved to Ukraine in 2018 and later joined the armed forces. He was fighting with the Ukrainian Marines at the time of capture.
