Statement of the Council for development of institutions of civil society and human rights with the President of the Russian Federation in connection with a hunger strike of protest against the results of municipal election in Astrakhan
| The Council considers it necessary to draw attention of all the branches of government, first of all, Central Election Committee and Prosecutor General’s of the Russian Federation, to flagrant neglect towards legal regulations manifested during municipal election in Astrakhan. Neither moral or legal principles nor reasons of political expedience allow anyone to ignore reports of mass violations of the citizens’ electoral rights which forced the people to resort to such an extreme measure of nonviolent resistance to protect their legal interests as a hunger strike. |
