Yabloko considers it necessary to release Oleg Sentsov immediately
Decision by Yabloko Bureau,28.09.2018
A Ukrainan film director Oleg Sentsov who serves his sentence in a maximum security penal colony has been on hunger strike for 139 days demanding that Ukrainian political prisoners be released from Russian prisons. Sentsov’s physical condition causes serious concern because he can die any day now.
The Yabloko party considers it necessary to release Oleg Sentsov immediately.
The right to pardon is an exclusive prerogative of the President, the Constitution poses no limitation to this right.
