Case No. 67413\/01<\/strong>
\n<\/a>Judgment date: 1 April 2010<\/strong><\/p>\n

Following an external audit of the Department\u00a0of Justice of the Sakhalin Region that\u00a0revealed embezzlement of budgetary assets,\u00a0criminal proceedings were instituted against\u00a0the applicant, the head of the Department,\u00a0on 25 February 2000. On 28 February 2000,\u00a0the applicant retained a lawyer and shortly\u00a0thereafter was arrested and taken into custody\u00a0as a suspect. Her application to be released\u00a0on bail was denied.\u00a0On 1 March 2000, she was remanded in\u00a0custody for fear that she might abscond or\u00a0obstruct investigations by influencing witnesses\u00a0\u2013 her former subordinates. On several\u00a0occasions between 1 March 2000 and 6\u00a0February 2001 her detention was extended\u00a0and appeals against the extensions denied on\u00a0the basis that she might abscond or obstruct\u00a0investigations. However, between 25 October\u00a02000 and 4 November 2000, the applicant\u00a0was held without the authorisation of a\u00a0judge or prosecutor simply on the basis that\u00a0her criminal case had been referred to court\u00a0for trial.<\/p>\n
