Dmitry Medvedev signed a law on ratifying the treaty between Russia and Afghanistan on the transfer of prisoners to serve their sentence in their home countries.

October 2, 2008

The Treaty sets out the conditions for the transfer of prisoners to serve their sentence in their home countries. One of the conditions of the transfer is the agreement of the prisoner or that of his or her representative. Following the transfer both states – Russia and Afghanistan – may grant pardon or amnesty to the prisoner.

The Treaty will help protect the rights and lawful interests of Russian citizens.
