Ukrainian pilot Savchenko has no complaints about her conditions at detention facility

Ukrainian pilot Nadia Savchenko is feeling basically well, is studying a criminal case against her, and expects a court to acquit her, Russian presidential Human Rights Council head Mikhail Fedotov told Interfax.

Fedotov visited Savchenko at the Matrosskaya Tishina pretrial detention facility in Moscow on Tuesday.

Savchenko has been charged with complicity in killing Russian journalists in eastern Ukraine.

"There are no complaints about the conditions in which she is being held. Her health status is satisfactory. She weighs 69 kilos, and her blood pressure is normal," Fedotov said.

"There are no reasons for concerns as regards medical indicators," he said.

"Nadia Savchenko is currently studying the case materials and is trying to do this as quickly as possible, so that her trial takes place sooner. She hopes a court will be impartial and will determine that she was not involved in the Russian journalists' death," he said.

After visiting Savchenko on June 2, Fedotov had said he weight stabilized at 67 kilos.

"Nadia Savchenko said she hoped that Ukrainian human rights workers were visiting Russian citizens Alexander Alexandrov and Yevgeny Yerofeyev, who are under arrest," Fedotov said.

Savchenko is currently held at a Moscow pretrial detention facility on charges of complicity in killing Russian journalists in eastern Ukraine.

She has gone on a hunger strike several times to protest her arrest and the charges brought against her.

Russian citizens Alexander Alexandrov and Yevgeny Yerofehev were detained near the town of Shchastya in the Luhansk region on May 16. One of them had been injured to his arm and the other to his leg. They underwent surgeries on May 29. Ukrainian investigators accused the two Russians of terrorist activities on May 19, and a Kyiv court ordered on May 22 to take them into custody at least until July 19.
