"I am extremely concerned about Khodorkovsky's health.
We don’t know what will happen there today and what actions will
be taken. We have already seen one instance where psychotropic agents were
applied to Pichugin. Then under public pressure and the facts, the Office
of Public Prosecutor had to admit that FSB had indeed investigated Pichugin,"
said deputy of the State Duma from the YABLOKO faction Alexei
Melnikov. According to Melnikov, "The Office of the Public Prosecutor
General will do all they can to prevent barristers from visting Khodorkovsky."
