The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) has accepted for consideration three complaints from housewife Alena Kreile, who is charged in three criminal cases for publicly justifying and glorifying aggression and war crimes (Article 74.1), Baltiya portal reported.
According to journalist Alla Berezovskaia, in her complaints Kreile points to illegal actions of law enforcement bodies, including arrest, search of her apartment and detention.
