According to Daily Mail, the father, Vyacheslav Matrosov, was jailed for 18 months but now has been allowed home a year early.

Mastrosov, a Russian, received a wave of sympathy, online and offline, for forcing child sex abuser Oleg Sviridov, to dig his own grave in a forest.

The paedophile was said to have died soon afterwards following a fight with the distraught father, who secretly buried his corpse in the unmarked grave.

Investigators reportedly concluded that Sviridov took his own life during the forest fracas in which Matrosov made clear his fury over the sex abuse.

Sviridov had repeatedly sexually abused Matrosov’s daughter, then aged six.

Upon being released from prison early, the father posted a picture with his wife Natalya, with the words: “Home. Love very much.”

Matrosov was initially held on suspicion of murder but this triggered a public outcry in Russia.

In April, he was convicted of “inciting” his friend “to suicide” by Krasnoglinsky Court in Samara, and sentenced to 18 months in a strict Russian penal colony.

Matrosov made the shocking discovery of his friend’s betrayal after finding sickening and graphic footage on his phone showing him (Sviridov) forcing his daughter to perform a sex act on him.

Matrosov pictured with his wife Natalya Matrosova and his two daughters.

The girl, now nine, was heard pleading: “Oleg, that’s enough, I can’t take it any more. I want to go home,” Daily Mail reported.

Matrosov, a former rocket engine factory worker, escaped 15 years in jail for murder, thanks to a wave of public support in the Samara region of Russia for him after he was linked to the killing of paedophile Sviridov, and the case was highlighted around the world.
