A 19-year-old citizen of Ukraine, Pavlo Hryb, who was arrested in Russia after being abducted from Belarusian territory, allegedly by Russia's FSB, has been granted access to food, cash money, and necessities, handed over by his family, but the issue of providing the young man with the medication his health condition requires is yet to be resolved, the teenager's lawyer, Andrei Sabinin, wrote on Facebook.
"As for his medication, the issue is being solved because this requires yet another agreement [with the authorities of the penitentiary facility]. The meeting with the employees of the consular department is scheduled for September 18. There is nothing more to add yet," he said.
