Justified perseverance
The defense of Ildar Dadina complained to the European Court of Human Rights on the illegal retention of the political prisoner in the colony after the supreme court withdrawal. This was stated by lawyer Ksenia Kostromina, RIA Novosti reports .
"We filed an urgent complaint to the European Court of Human Rights about the illegal deprivation of Dadin after the decision of the Supreme Court of the Supreme Court on its justification. Now we are preparing a similar complaint in the Moscow Region Railway Court, where we will also raise the issue of illegal retention of Dadin in the colony from February 22 to 26," Kostromina said.
According to the lawyer, Dadin will file a lawsuit in court on rehabilitation and compensation for harm for illegal criminal prosecution and imprisonment. The amount of compensation that the former political prisoner intends to demand did not name Kostromin.
After liberation, Dadin intends to protect human rights, the lawyer said. “At this stage, its main attention and maximum efforts will be focused on torture in the Karelian colony,” Kostromina said.
Dadin became the first in Russia convicted under Article 212.1 of the Criminal Code (repeated violations at rallies). On December 7, 2015, the judge of the Basmanny District Court of Moscow Natalia Dudar sentenced Dadina to three years of general regime ( 
On February 10, a decision of the Constitutional Court was published with a request to revise the decisions in the Dadin case. In addition, the KS indicated that the verdict to imprisonment under Article 212.1 of the Criminal Code is possible only if the actions that are incriminated to the accused, "entailed the loss of a peaceful public event, causing significant harm to constitutionally protected values." The court ordered the State Duma to make appropriate adjustments to Article 212.1.
In connection with this decision, the defense of Dadin on February 13 filed a supervisory complaint about the verdict to the activist. On February 22, the Presidium of the Armed Forces decided to free Dadin . The activist is recognized as the right to rehabilitation. As the prosecutor Leonid Korzhinek stated at the hearing, two decisions on Dadin imputed by administrative articles at the time of the initiation of a criminal case did not enter into legal force, and therefore, the opening of the case was unlawful.
However, the leadership of the colony from the IK-5 of the Altai Territory in Rubtsovsk refused to let go of the documents from the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces. Dadin’s lawyers sent a complaint to the ECHR against the illegal retention of the activist in the colony. The Strasbourg court ordered Russia until February 27 to give an answer on this complaint. Dadin was released only on February 26 .
Given the time spent before the sentence under house arrest, Dadin was deprived of freedom for 2 years 1 month- from January 30, 2015 (not counting the time from January 15, 2015, when he was serving a 15-day arrest for the action in support of Alexei Navalny ; before the end of his arrest was detained to initiate a criminal case). In jail and colonies, after the sentence, Dadin spent almost 1 year 4 months.
