MOSCOW, March 18 (RAPSI) – Ukrainian prosecutors have forwarded all available documents in the case of Ukrainian pilot Nadezhda Savchenko to their Russian colleagues, attorney Mark Feigin writes on Twitter.
“The Ukrainian prosecutor’s office has forwarded documents on Savchenko at Russia’s request. They will be added to the case as evidence… We propose once again that the criminal persecution of Savchenko under Article105 of the Criminal Code (Murder) be dismissed for lack of evidence,” Feigin writes.
He did not specify what documents have been sent to Russia.
Nadezhda Savchenko was arrested in Russia last summer on charges of complicity in the murder of two Russian TV journalists during hostilities in Donbas and on illegally crossing the border into Russia.
TV correspondent Igor Kornelyuk and sound engineer Anton Voloshin were killed on June 17 in a mortar attack.
Savchenko has denied the allegations and claims that she was kidnapped in Ukraine and forcibly transported to Russia.
She was elected a member of Ukraine’s parliament from the Batkivshchyna Party in October 2014 and approved as a member of the Ukraine mission to PACE in late January 2015.
