Russia - Medvedev on abuses in the Federal Penitentiary Service: These are egregious cases

Russia (bbabo.net), - There are always certain nuances and abuses in the activities of any departments, including law enforcement agencies, and in such cases it is necessary to understand, said Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev, commenting on a number of high-profile criminal cases in against employees of the Federal Penitentiary Service. "These are really egregious cases. A large number of criminal cases have been initiated. I hope that all of them will be brought to an end, and the people who committed the crimes will be prosecuted. There simply should not be anything else," he is sure.

According to him, the penitentiary system must change, it must become more modern, the conditions of detention must become different. It is also a matter of finances, Medvedev noted, because it is necessary to allocate a lot of money for internal detention facilities, pre-trial detention centers or colonies. "It's easy to rebuild according to a modern model. But this must be dealt with," the deputy head of the Security Council said.
