MOLDOVA : Sergei Gurgurov (m)
18 May 2006
Sergei Gurgurov was released on bail on 12 May.
The Chisinau appeal court ruled that his detention had been illegal and that there had been no valid grounds to detain him a second time. Sergei Gurgurov will be resuming medical treatment for injuries reportedly inflicted by police officers when he was detained in October 2005.
Many thanks to all who sent appeals. No further action is requested from the UA network.
