Attorneys for Boris Kuznetsov, a lawyer prosecuted for disclosing a state secret, announced that the investigator responsible for the case, when requesting an order for Kuznetsov's arrest, submitted classified documents to the court. Kuznetsov was prosecuted for a similar act: he copied a classified document (a memo on wiretapping that he argued was illegal) from his client's file and submitted it to the Constitutional Court. The defense has requested that the case against Kuznetsov be dismissed or that the investigator be punished. Kuznetsov fled to the U.S. in 2007 and obtained political asylum.
