The prison in Tigin (Bender), which is located in Transdniestria, a self-proclaimed republic in Moldova, has had its electricity, water, and sewage services cut off by the local administration, despite the fact that it houses a hospital where prisoners suffering from tuberculosis are treated. Unlike the city, Tigin’s prison is part of the Moldavian justice ministry’s penitentiary system. Full Story...Moscow police’s declaration of love to Beijing
On October 10, police in Moscow frustrated an attempt of the Transnational Radical Party (TRP) to hold a picket outside the Chinese Embassy in Moscow. Russian democrats are known for supporting Chinese citizens, or to be more precise, victims of political repression in China. This time, however, they gathered outside the Chinese Embassy on behalf of Yelena Timchenko, a Russian citizen, accused not of a political crime but of a criminal offence. Last year, a Chinese court sentenced the 24-year-old woman of the Primorsky kraj (in Russia’s Far East) to death on a charge of drug smuggling. Full Story...Boris Berezovsky says, ‘Liberal Russia’s leader has come to terms with the Kremlin’
 On October 9, Liberal Russia’s political council expelled Boris Berezovsky, co-chairman of the party. We asked Boris Berezovsky to comment on this decision and to answer our questions. This is what Boris Berezovsky told PRIMA in a telephone conversation from London:
— Are you going to challenge the decision of the political council at party congress? — I am not going to challenge it, but I will appeal to the Congress; there is a difference. In my opinion, this decision is illegal from the standpoint of the statute and spirit of Liberal Russia. I was elected co-chairman by party congress, and not by the political council. The congress alone is entitled to remove me from co-chairmanship, and only after that the issue of my membership in the Party can be discussed. By no means, vice versa. Full Story... Psychiatry For American Schoolchildren.
26 September US Congress Committee on Government Reform held a hearing entitled “Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder – Are We Over-Medicating Our Children?” The hearing was opened by Senator Dan Burton; among the speakers were daughter of the legendary rock musician Lisa Marie Presley, Head of Citizens’ Commission on Human Rights formed by Church of Scientology Bruce Wiseman, Representative of American Psychiatric Association and American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry David Fassler. N. Bush, the present US president’s brother, had also been planning to speak but his speech was delivered recorded on
the video. Full Story... USA investigates links between Ukraine and Iraq
Elizabeth Jones, assistant to the US Secretary of State, has arrived in Kiev with a group of American military experts. They are investigating evidence of the illegal sale to Iraq of the Ukrainian “Kolchuga” radar system. Members of the UN Security Council will visit Ukraine for the same reason. Full Story...The FSB as a criminal grouping
 The New-York-based publishing house GRANI has just published in Russian a book by Lt.-Col. Alexander Litvinenko, who used to work for Russia’s Federal Security Service (Russian acronym FSB) but is now residing in Great Britain. The book is entitled “LPG, the Lubyanka Criminal Group”. What the book is about is easy to guess from the title (Lubyanskaya Square, or Lubyanka, is the place where the FSB headquarters, successor of the KGB, are located.) The more so since everybody heard about Litvinenko’s exposures of his former bosses’ misdeeds ranging from conspiracy to kill Boris Berezovsky to plotting apartment explosions in Russian cities. Full Story...Uzbekistan Holds Human Rights Organizer in Psychiatric Hospital
September 26, 2002. “I’m trying to hold on, but everyone knows that after the powerful drugs that they make me take, and after they give me injections, the effects can be terrible. I’ve already felt the effects of these drugs the first time they treated me. This is how they punish me for my human rights work.” These are the words of Yelena Urlaeva, describing her forced hospitalization in a Tashkent psychiatric hospital. Full Story...Prosecutor’s watch, Timoshenko’s underwear and Kuchma’s legitimacy, that’s what they are talking about in the Ukrainian parliament
Forty seven deputies, representing the left and right wings of the opposition in the Ukrainian parliament, went on a hunger strike in front of Leonid Kuchma’s presidential administration. They seek a meeting with the president to press him into resignation. The move seemed to touch the president so deeply that he did grant an audience to the four ‘most hungry’ strikers. Full Story... Insufficient Preparedness to Resist Hurricane
Before hurricane Isidore hit the Isle of Youth (formerly the Isle of Pines, 150 km south of Havana) and western Cuba, food was scarce, houses were in a bad situation and there were no materials to repair them.
Isidore was a second category hurricane on a scale of five, with winds of 150 km per hour and much rain. Full Story... Collective Guilt for Vietnam
 Activists from the Transnational Radical Party, or TRP, carried out a demonstration in front of the Vietnamese embassy in Moscow last Saturday in protest of that country’s human rights violations.
Russia is at least partly to blame for the current situation in Vietnam, Russian TRP leader Nikolai Khramov claimed in his speech, since Russia is responsible for forcing a communist regime on Vietnam.
