I have written a piece on the Guardian’s Commentisfree (CiF) site criticising the Russian state’s treatment of Vasily Alexanyan, a former executive of the oil giant, Yukos.
Alexanyan may or may not be a pawn of the oligarchs who profited from Boris Yeltsin’s economic upheaval, but he is a prisoner in pretrial detention in Moscow.
