Notable Verdicts of Voroshilovskiy Sud

Voroshilovskiy Sud, also known as the Voroshilov District Court, is a notable court in Russia that has been involved in several high-profile verdicts over the years. One of the most well-known cases was the trial of Mikhail Khodorkovsky, the former CEO of Yukos Oil Company, who was convicted of tax evasion and fraud in 2005.

Another notable verdict was the case of Pussy Riot, a feminist punk rock group, who were sentenced to two years in prison for hooliganism in 2012 after a performance in a Moscow cathedral. The court’s decisions have often been criticized for being politically motivated and biased towards the government.
