MOSCOW, September 16 (RAPSI) – Ukraine has released Russian student Maria Koleda, who was detained for “destabilizing the situation” in southern Ukraine, during an exchange of prisoners with the self-defense forces, lawyer Dmitry Agranovsky told RIA Novosti on Tuesday.

“Two other persons have also been released,” he said. “As far as I know, Maria is now in Donetsk, where she plans to stay awhile.”

Agranovsky said the agreed upon procedure for the exchange of prisoners does not stipulate the right to seek rehabilitation for criminal prosecution.

Maria Koleda was arrested on April 8. Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU) claimed she was involved in clashes at the Nikolayev regional administration. The SBU said, citing Maria’s words, that she wounded three people using a non-lethal gun.

Kiev and the self-proclaimed Donetsk and Lugansk people’s republics reached several agreements at a meeting of the Trilateral Contact Group of Russia, Ukraine and the OSCE in Minsk on September 5.

The most important provision concerns a ceasefire. They also agreed on the exchange of prisoners in an “all for all” formula.
