| Description: |
Since its birth in 1991, the Russian Federation has introduced substantial reforms to its legal system. This report charts the history of the justice system, assesses the impact of international human rights instruments on it and evaluate how legal reforms have been implemented. |
| Synopsis: |
Although the law has extended its reach in the Russian Federation, it still offers little protection to many people. This AI report highlights four areas where the law is failing to provide justice: the continuous use of the propiska system of registration in defiance of Constitutional Court rulings; the impunity enjoyed by state officials under the law to combat terrorism; the institutionalization and neglect of children with mental disability; and, the violation of the human rights of prisoners, particularly those serving life sentences. |
