ECHR rejects Tymoshenko's request for treatment in Germany
Brussels, October 25 (Interfax-Ukraine) – The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) has rejected former Ukrainian Premier Yulia Tymoshenko's request for treatment in Germany.
The court made this decision this week, Interfax-Ukraine learned from ECHR.
"The court received the request according to Article 39, and the request was rejected," the source said.
On October 11, 2011, Pechersky District Court in Kyiv sentenced Tymoshenko to seven years in prison for overstepping her authority when signing 2009 gas contracts with Russia. She has served her sentence in Kachanivska Penal Colony in Kharkiv since late December 2011.
On May 9, 2012 Tymoshenko was transferred to Central Clinical Hospital No. 5 in Kharkiv for treatment. The ex-premier's course of treatment in hospital was drawn up by German doctors from the Charite Clinic.
On October 19, 2012 it was reported that Tymoshenko asked to discharge her from hospital and return to prison.
