A bill was introduced to the State Duma, which will help prisoners-Caucasians and Khodorkovsky
The Chechen parliament introduced a bill to the State Duma on the return to the criminal legislation of the norm that existed until 2007, obliging to send the prisoners to serve the sentence as close as possible to the house. Thus, theoretically, “Chechnya will help Khodorkovsky,” notes Gazeta.ru . However, in practice, the existence of this norm previously did not help the ex-head of the Yukos. Lawyers and the opposition welcome the initiative, and United Russia doubts its justification.
