Igor resulted in 15:00 and took the next morning at 9:30 .
Appearance - the same, only thin and pale . But it all looks , it's hard to expect anything else. Spirit - the former . Statement told nothing special. He said that recently tightened mode . Former head of the colony sent to DIN increase in Vitebsk . Other prisoners told that there were plans to close Novopolotsk colony due to the expansion " Naftan " that fence is a fence with her, but then it was canceled . "

Moreover , we must also write a statement, which may or may not sign , you need to inform their relatives , and the letter can not reach in time , may be lost room key , and so on .
