"My client has a bad chill. It's dangerous, with his chronic kidney condition." A doctor could not see the patient in detention today-he could not cope with baffling bureaucratic intricacies to get a permit, the alarmed lawyer went on.
Pasat, adviser to the Russian electric monopoly boss, was detained at the Chisinau airport, Friday last. He is suspected of involvement in a controversial sale of 21 MIG-29 planes, report the Moldovan top prosecutor's officers, who are investigating.
The Chisinau court prolonged his detention for ten days, Monday. A complaint was urgently forwarded to the Court of Appeal. Pasat went on hunger strike the same day.
He had to call the ambulance on two occasions since then, being at death's door. "He is real bad. His cell is ice-cold, and he has a severe chill," said the lawyer.
