A court in Russia's Bashkortostan region on September 13 ruled that an 86-year-old man who served 13 years in prison after being wrongfully convicted of murder and attempted murder in 1959, should receive compensation of about 32 million rubles ($333,400). He had sought 450 million rubles. The ruling comes after the Russian Supreme Court ruled in May that Fatkhulla Iskhakov was wrongfully convicted of attacking three women with an axe. After his release, Iskhakov fought to prove his innocence. In 2012, another man, Nail Saitbattalov, confessed to the crime that took place more than 60 years ago.
