15 Russian Lawyers Accuse Investigators of Falsifications

A group of 15 St. Petersburg attorneys told reporters that they have asked President Dmitry Medvedev to intervene and stop alleged abuses of power by the investigative arm of the General Prosecutor's Office. The attorneys represent several persons, including former police officers, accused of “corporate raids” (which in Russia means a criminal takeover of a business). The attorneys allege that the investigators systematically use falsification and intimidation as the primary means for solving crimes.
