Office of Public Prosecutor is auditing "Memorial"
The Tver Inter-District Procuracy of Moscow has requested documents from the Human Rights Centre "Memorial," clarifying who and on what funds had published a manual for the Russians willing to send a complaint to the European Court for Human Rights in Strasbourg. Last week, a procuracy warning was also received by the "Civil Assistance" Committee. The human rights defenders themselves think the actions of procurators to be an attempt to exert pressure, the "Novye Izvestia" newspaper writes.
The training manual "Application to the European Court for Human Rights" was published last spring in five thousand copies and was distributed among lawyers' offices, courts and NGOs. http://eng.kavkaz.memo.ru/newstext/engnews/id/1178719.html
