“An Israeli and US citizen convicted of drug smuggling, Naama Issahar, should be taken from a pre-trial detention center near Moscow to serve a prison sentence ... According to the plan, this should happen today, January 23,” he said.

At the same time, the representative of the PMC noted that so far the officers of the Federal Penitentiary Service did not begin to transfer the prisoner.

At the moment, it is not known which colony the Israeli woman will be transported to, however, according to unconfirmed reports, she will remain to serve her sentence in the Moscow region. Issakhar is supposed to be imprisoned in a women's penitentiary in Mozhaisk.

Earlier, the Moscow regional court upheld the sentence of Issakhar, which received 7.5 years in a penal colony.

On April 9, the girl was detained with 9.6 grams of hashish in the transit zone of Sheremetyevo Airport, where she made a transplant on the way from Delhi to Tel Aviv.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu promised to seek her release.
