Leonid Razvozzhayev, an aide to the A Just Russia parliamentary deputy, Ilya Ponomaryov, has been brought to Moscow from Kyiv after being apprehended in Ukraine. Razvozzhayev was seized by unidentified men in black and put into a car near the office for refugees' affairs in Kyiv while he was making inquiries about the possibility of receiving political asylum. The Kyiv police say they do not know who arrested Razvozzhayev. According to Razvozzhayev's attorney Violetta Volkova, no extradition trial in Ukraine took place. Accordingly, Razvozzhayev was brought to Moscow illegally. A Moscow court, in the absence of a defense attorney, authorized a pre-trial arrest of Razvozzhayev for two months. The attorney is not allowed to see the defendant since no charges has been formally brought (he has the status of a "suspect"). Razvozzhayev had a chance to tell journalists that he had been "tortured." Razvozzhayev and several other oppositionists are being prosecuted on allegations of "plotting mass riots," which were made in a TV film recently aired by NTV company.
