The Moscow Appeals Court has postponed continuation of Israeli Naama Issachar's appeal hearing on a drug sentence until next week to accomodate her presence in the courtroom.
The hearing began with Issachar responding to questions via video conference where she is being held, including a positive response to judges asking if she trusts the court. Later she asked to be physically in the courtroom, saying the video-conference route was difficult. While the prosecution claimed the video conference did not violate her rights the judges accepted the decision.
