Kazan human rights activists stood up for the Mari activist
In October last year, the city court of Yoshkar-Ola decided to place civil activist Yevgeny Pirogov for 30 days in the Republican Clinical Psychiatric Hospital of the Ministry of Health of Tatarstan in the city of Kazan for a forensic examination. On December 5, after the Mari El Supreme Court confirmed the legality of this procedure, Pirogov was sent to Kazan. On January 4, 2013, the term of the civil activist in a psychiatric hospital is expired, but Evgenia Pirogov was never released home.
