Yevhen Lavrenchuk was imprisoned for more than two month after being detained at Moscow’s request
A Ukrainian opera director who was arrested in Italy at Russia’s request said he hopes to be “the last ever victim of Russian exploitation of Interpol”.
Yevhen (Eugene) Lavrenchuk, 39, was imprisoned in Naples for more than two months after Russia issued a call for his arrest through Interpol’s “red notice”, an instrument once used to hunt fugitive criminals but which now includes the names of political dissidents.
