Declare as illegal the court verdict to Polukhin`s family in the city Voronezh in Russia and impose personal sanctions

Created by A.L. on July 07, 2015

7 July 15 in the city Voronezh in Russia family Polukhin`s were sentenced by district court for 8 years in prison. They were accused of drugs selling, namely selling buns with poppy seeds. It is known the seeds are not poppy drugs. At the same time they are part of the traditional cooking of Russia. According to some estimates, drug laws in Russia it is not used to prevent crimes, but for corruption schemes and for the building of the dictatorship. The family had restaurant in the city Voronezh and in the number of meals sold buns with poppy seeds. We ask to estimate this sentence as violates russian law, international law and rights principles and impose personal sanctions against Putins member of this court.
