In its opinion, adopted in such cases, standard procedures were violated, which may indicate the presence of corruption component.

Vasilyeva was set free on Tuesday. In total she spent in custody 109 days from the time of her detention in court May 8 after the verdict Khamovniki Court of Moscow. The judge also took into account the more than two years, carried out the former official’s under house arrest, and sentenced to five years’ imprisonment Vasiliev won the legal right to rely on parole.

Crossing step

The verdict in the case “Oboronservis” came into force on August 21, 2015 After consideration of the appeal accomplices Vasilyeva Moscow City Court, up to this point it could not be transported to the colony explains Osechkin. According to him, an ordinary convict then usually spends a month in jail. Vasilyev also was taken to the colony of Vladimir region has July 23, a month before the sentence comes into force.

The minimum term of the stages – two to three weeks, during which the convicted person is delayed by the transit point while employees FSIN pick up his “fellow travelers”, transportation detainees in the same direction, says human rights activist. Once in the colony for 10 days, the prisoner spends in isolation, the so-called quarantine unit, where it is distributed in a common party.

If Vasilyev settled in colonies on a general basis, to petition for parole, she could not before the sixth of August.

too quickly praised

The court took into account the positive characteristics of the convicted from prison, according to which it is “I enjoy the respect of the other convicts, polite and tactful with respect to both prison staff and other persons serving a sentence.” In 99% of cases, the courts reject the petition for parole without a positive characteristic of the administration of the institution argues Osechkin.
