Moskalkova called Padva's lawyer a scientist from God

Honored Lawyer of Russia Genrikh Padva had no academic degrees, but he was a scientist from God. This belief was shared by the Commissioner for Human Rights in the Russian Federation, Tatiana Moskalkova, in an interview with Izvestia on February 12.

"He was a great scientist, a scientist from God, from heaven. He will forever remain in our memory, and we must definitely continue this scientific and human school of respect for dignity, respect for human rights and freedoms," Moskalkova stressed.

She noted that Padva loved life and people. He never raised his voice against opponents, and his principles were respected by both investigators and prosecutors.

"He was a moral man, because it is impossible to realize oneself in the legal profession without building a scale of values based on justice, mercy and humanism," the Ombudsman concluded.

"I always knew that I was working next to the Knight advocate"
