The judgement, passed on Thursday, obliges Russia and Moldova to pay a monetary compensation to former Moldovan dissident Ilia Ilashku. In his time, he called for joining Chisinau to Rumania.
"We believe that the judgement is 'ordered' and shows the court's being biased in considering the case, in this way undermining trust in such an important institution as the European Human Rights Court", the Duma draft statement reads.
Initiators of the draft remind to the Strasbourg Court that that Russia ratified the convention of the protection of human rights and its protocols only in 1998, while the "Ilashku case" is dated 1992.
In the opinion of the draft co-author Pavel Krasheninnikov, head of the Duma legislative committee, the judgement is a "juridical nonsense".
In June 1992 Ilashku was passed to the Russian military authorities of the self-proclaimed Transdnestrian Moldovan republic on the left bank of the Dniester river. In May 2001 Ilashku was released from prison on the insistence of international organisations.
