Through treatment Viciebsk doctor Igor Postnov in Mahiloŭ region prosecutor's office, became known some details of prison life Sergey Ryzhov, the challenger for the presidency in the 2010 elections. Condemned in accordance with Paragraph 1 of Article 167 and Part 1 of Article 339 of the Criminal Code (sexual violence and hooliganism) politician serving his sentence in Mahiloŭ penal colony #15.
The prosecutor's office considered the treatment of Igor Postnov the facts biased and rude attitude on the part of the administration of the penal colony for convicts. The inspection is no legal basis for the application of measures of prosecutor's supervision she found.
As the response of Mahiloŭ region Deputy Prosecutor Sergei Silvanovich, Administration of the IR-15 operates strictly within the framework of existing legislation and internal regulations of correctional institutions. But the convicted Sergey Ryzhov for eight months in the colony managed to get thirteen penalties. In addition, talks about responsibility warnings explanation employees of the administration of legislation prisoner somehow perceives as threats to his address.

More – more: Sergey Ryzhov, it turns out rude staff administration, causing property damage colony communicates with convicted containing isolated . But physical force and special means against violators of correctional colony have never been used. All violations are strictly documented, and reports are attached.
The various government bodies, public organizations and the media fifty prisoners sent appeals. Relatives and other persons written 52 letters, 36 of which the recipient will receive. Proceeding from this fact, the senior justice adviser Sergey Silvanovich concludes that approval of undirected recipients of letters concluded untrue.
