You can achieve something from the authorities if you have enough health. In 2001, Evgeny Vedenin was sentenced to 15 years for the murder of Tatneft security chief Alexander Kalyakin. He spent 4 years and then it turned out that Kalyakin was killed by a completely different person. Vedenin was released, and he began to demand compensation for the years he spent aimlessly (in prison). And in November 2005, he sued the authorities for three million rubles. The case is unprecedented. And “just a year and a half later” Vedenin received this money.
