“We shall demand a full investigation by the prosecutor’s office of each individual case because what we are seeing in the documents is dreadful – there are interesting Chinese, Russians, all kinds of people appearing here. We want to know who lobbied for each one of them, what violations, what swindles these passports were used for,” said Hamid Hamid, deputy chair of the MRF parliamentary group.
