A business amnesty: Mission impossible

16:45 31/05/2013 The idea of an amnesty for thousands of Russian businesspeople who have been sentenced or are in prison under Criminal Code articles on economic crimes sounds utopian in today’s Russia.

Boston tragedy: The curtains are lifted

12:02 25/04/2013 The law enforcement agencies, which played the lead role during the first part of the Boston tragedy, performed in the best traditions of action movies.

Prosecutors and defense attorneys are moving to the forefront during part two, which promises to be no less thrilling, albeit less dynamic.

Berezovsky's lawyer: Lawsuit against Abramovich was beyond a gamble

12:01 24/04/2013 Semyon Ariya, godfather of the Soviet and Russian legal profession, does not enjoy being in the spotlight. This could have something to do with the fact that he just turned 90 in December. But Mr. Ariya has made an exception to speak with RAPSI about perhaps his most famous client, Boris Berezovsky.
