 Media Repression, Pasko Case - Johnson's Russia List 1-23-03
USSURIYSK, Russia, Jan 23 (Reuters) - Military journalist Grigory Pasko, jailed on charges of espionage for alleging that Russia's navy dumped nuclear waste at sea, was freed by a Russian court on Thursday and vowed to clear his name.
A court in Ussuriysk, near the Pacific port of Vladivostok, over-ruled prosecutors and prison officials and gave Pasko a conditional release well ahead of the end of his four-year sentence.
Pasko, whose case was seen by environmentalists and free speech advocates as an indicator of President Vladimir Putin's commitment to uphold human rights, said he would fight on to prove his innocence.

 Pasko Parole Hearing Date Set   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
The appeal was filed with the city court of Ussuriysk, in which jurisdiction Pasko is serving his sentence for allegedly "intending" to pass notes on Russian naval manoeuvres to the Japanese media.
Upon receiving the appeal, Pavlov said, the Ussuriysk city court scheduled a parole hearing and demanded that the colony administration forward to judges by last Monday documents from Pasko's case and a history of his behaviour while doing time in the colony — a necessary condition for a parole hearing.
Confusion was compounded when Interfax released a report saying Ussuriysk prison officials would meet to formulate their statement on Pasko's eligibility on Jan. 24 — the day after the parole hearing.

 PEN American Center - January 23, 2003:Grigory Pasko Released
Pasko's release follows a decision made by a civilian court in Ussuriysk, near Pasko's home town of Vladivostok, that over-ruled previous decisions made by military courts.
At a press conference today, Pasko told journalists that he would continue to fight for complete rehabilitation and that he would press on with his case that has already been presented to the European Court on Human Rights.
Ussuriysk prison authorities had opposed parole for Pasko, citing his refusal to participate in prison activities, such as talent shows and writing for the prison newspaper, and that he had complained about his living conditions in letters to his wife.

 Support Grigory Pasko!
His freedom brings to a close a campaign of harassment by the Federal Security Service that saw him branded as a traitor for his reporting on the Russian Pacific Fleet and its irresponsible handling of its nuclear waste.
It also signals a larger victory over Moscow's ongoing cloak and dagger spy-hunt against environmental activists and whistleblowers, as well as dealing a blow to the ever-tightening grip of Vladimir Putin's Kremlin on the free press.
Pavlov ascribed today's victory to the fact that the parole hearing was held in the Ussuriysk city court - a civilian court "which was able to see the truth," said Pavlov, as opposed to the military courts which have twice convicted Pasko, and subsequently dismissed his appeals.
