Media outlets in Russia announced Monday that the clemency committee for Naama Issachar is expected to convene this afternoon to discuss the possible release of the Israeli young woman imprisoned in the country.

Ekaterina Samanova, Moscow's human rights commissioner, told the news agency Tass that a quorum was obtained for the establishment of the commission and that all its members were appointed. "Issachar has been sentenced to seven years in prison. She is incarcerated in a Moscow suburban facility and Amurhal being transported to a prison in the city of Vladimir," the human rights commissioner said.

"Since Vishar is imprisoned in the Moscow region, she has filed a pardon trial for authorities in the region. No matter what the outcome of the hearing, we will send the decision to the Russian Federation Office for further treatment," Semenova said.

Naama Issachar yesterday filed an official pardon for Russian President Vladimir Putin in a move that may lead to her release from Russian prison. Issachar's Russian lawyer, Alexey Dubrovin, announced the pardon request, saying "We discussed with Naama Issachar about the Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Pskov's statement that her pardon requires a formal application to the President of the Russian Federation. She has already submitted such in writing, in the required form, through the prison manager where she is.

More on:

• The Kremlin: "Naama Issachar did not formally request pardon"

• Commissioner in Russia: I recommend to pardon Naama

• "Naama and I are so lucky to have won you as a mother"

"Naama, her family and lawyers are hoping for a speedy acceptance of her request by the Russian President, in accordance with a letter in the Russian Constitution and that she will receive a pardon and be released," the lawyer added.

Remember, Naama was arrested about nine months ago at the Moscow airport after being seized with nine and a half grams of cannabis and sentenced to seven and a half years in prison. In recent weeks, a deal has been struck between Putin and the prime minister, under which the two countries have begun mutual action to improve their relationship, with one of the Russian gestures likely being the release of the young woman.

Last weekend, Putin came to visit Israel, marking the 75th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz extermination camp, where he met with Netanyahu and Naama's mother - Yaffe Issachar. "It won't take long," Netanyahu said, referring later to his family, referring to their imprisoned daughter in Russia. "I thank the Prime Minister for the efforts. President Putin assured me that he would bring the girl home to me," the mother said.

President Putin also spoke after the closed-door meeting: "Indeed, I have now met Naama's horror, and it is clear that Naama is from a very good family. I know the position of the Prime Minister. And supporting her daughter, I told her and say again - everything will be fine. "

"No further delay expected"

Concurrent with this meeting, Naama held a meeting with Russian Human Rights Commissioner Tatyana Moselkova, who agreed to assist the young woman in her pardon request. According to Moselkova, Yishker had no complaints during her meeting with her about the conditions of her arrest, and she made sure "everything was fine with her." "Issachar did not make any specific requests regarding her terms," ​​she said. She added that "Issachar did not commit an offense that harmed the Russians."

Yesterday, a close relative of the Ishachar family told Israel Today: "There is no change in the situation. We formally applied the pardon proceeding. The form in question is procedural and technical only, no further delay is expected. "
