the story of Khodorkovsky

Former Yukos CEO Mikhail Khodorkovsky, who is serving a sentence in prison N7 Segezha city of Arkhangelsk region for the theft of oil, has agreed to lead a column in the publication The New Times. Topics for which Khodorkovsky would write in the paper, were not disclosed, but the first material devoted to the disgraced oligarch "people to prison" at various times of his release proved it with him behind bars. Earlier, Khodorkovsky only published articles in various publications, including foreign ones, and also gave a written interview with the media.

In his article the former head of Yukos, told about two prisoners - Kole, who preferred to be disabled rather than take the blame for the shameful, in his opinion, robbery, and Sergei, during the trial that a witness suddenly opposed all the law enforcement system.
According to Khodorkovsky, many inmates there are principles for which they are ready to really suffer. As a former head of the Yukos escorted to freedom of 23-year-old Nicholas. The young man spent five years for possession of drugs, and this was not his first time. Six months later, he returned and charged in the same crime, but with a terrible scar on her stomach.
Kohl told, when he was arrested, investigators decided to write off on it yet some unsolved case. In return usually offered less time and date, or the ability to select the zone. Nicholas knew that usual in such cases, we are talking about petty robbery and agreed. However, in recognition brought to him an elderly pensioner, who has a street robber snatched her purse with two thousand rubles.
The old woman with the filing of the investigators identified Kohl, but suddenly he refused to take offense. How to motivate young people to take away the last old woman, he would never have. He was beaten and sent to the camera "think».
After some time, the young man not to take away the sin of robbery old woman made a harakiri by slashing his stomach and throwing their insides to the guards. He miraculously saved, and now Kohl invalid, but does not regret what was done, since surrendering, would lose the "self-esteem, without which life itself can not imagine».
"I look at this man repeatedly convicted and bitterly thinking of many people at large, who value their honor is much cheaper, and take a couple of thousand old man or an old woman do not find a particular sin. Let robbery and covered with buzz words. Shame on them "- sums up Mr. Khodorkovsky, noting that unwittingly boasts Coley.

As a terminally ill witness exposed system

He told about the fate of Khodorkovsky and another barman - a gypsy mother and drug addict with the experience Sergei, whom while he was sitting in the same cell. According to Sergei, the last time they took him, tossing marked money. A man always bought drugs from one dealer, the police demanded the surrender supplier, he refused, and then he was framed by submitting traffickers. "I've heard tales of such sea" - said Khodorkovsky.
Sergei faced up to 8-12 years, but suddenly there was an event that changed the course of the court. With one of the processes, Sergei came "in shock". As it turned out, the court gave testimony of 50-year-old witness who framed him. A man was arrested on some other business, and in the prison hospital, he was diagnosed with a fatal disease. And then, speaking in court on the case of Sergei, he decided to tell the truth, purified before death.
As told to the witness on behalf of the police, he substituted a human, a drug dealer, giving the money to the enforcers. He told the man and how cleaned competitors and customers of competitors.
As a result, the judge was forced to adjourn the meeting room by clearing through a lawyer present and to start negotiations with Sergei. In the end, he was offered three years - at the time of the trial he had already served more than a year. As promised Sergei he will be released before the end of the period of parole. According to Khodorkovsky, a week later, Sergei was released, promising to be back working on the railway and start up with drugs.

"Often, it becomes literally the feeling terribly stupidly wasted lives. Fates, broken with your hands or a heartless system ", - Khodorkovsky wrote in connection with the history of Sergei. "Such a system. Such people. Before Threshold. On the threshold. That all of us when something is waiting for ", - concluded its first review of ex-head of Yukos.
Recall that in late December, Moscow's Khamovniki Court sentenced Mikhail Khodorkovsky and former head of MFO "Menatep" Platon Lebedev to 14 years in prison for the theft of oil. May 24 the Moscow City Court reduced the sentence to 13 years in prison. The period is calculated from 2003 - the date of the arrest of the first case of Yukos. The convicts, if they will not be entitled to parole, have to be released in 2016.
Khodorkovsky and Lebedev were convoyed June 10 from prison "Matrosskaya Tishina" in prison to serve his sentence. June 17, Khodorkovsky was brought to the colony N7 city Segezha in Karelia. Lebedev was sent to the colony in Velsk in Arkhangelsk region.
