Yulia and Aleksandr Timoshenko

Batkivshchyna Party leader and former Prime Minister of Ukraine Yulia Timoshenko and her spouse Aleksandr, who was allowed by the Court to act as a defence, during a session of Pechersk district court in Kiev, on Monday, August 8, 2011. On this day a court refused to release the former Prime Minister Yulia Timoshenko from custody for the second time. Thus, the Court has rejected a petition of three religion confessions, Ukrainian Parliament Commissioner for Human Rights Nina Karpachova, as well as people's deputies who wanted to bail Yulia Timoshenko.
