Verkhovna Rada deputy Nadezhda Savchenko, who is under investigation, complained that she was in severe pain.. During the meeting of the Shevchenko district court of Kiev on Tuesday, October 23, the disgraced politician stated that she needed operational assistance from medical staff. "I really need two operations. This is an old knee injury from the army ... due to the fact that I am not moving very much, everything has become inflamed, "the Ukrainian Pravda quotes Savchenko. Nardep explained that she had long-standing problems with meniscus and a torn cruciate ligament of the knee. However, the doctors recommended the patient not to hurry with the operation while being in the SIZO. Since after such a surgical intervention rehabilitation is required for 6-9 months. The only way out is to practice on a stationary bike, a treadmill and a rowing simulator.. But these medical tips sound mockingly: “I don’t have the opportunity to put simulators that don’t even fit into my cell,” said Savchenko.. - while i will endure the pain.

Nothing, not the first time ", - the defendant severely noted. Savchenko was detained on March 22 right in a building in Verkhovna Rada on suspicion of preparing a coup and terrorist attacks in Kiev. For this she faces life imprisonment. The people's deputy is deprived of parliamentary immunity, but she refused to hand over the deputy mandate. On October 23, the court should consider the request of the Prosecutor General’s Office Square on the extension of Savchenko’s stay in custody..
