Orlan Sotpa, chief executive of the Tuvan regional department of the Russian Life Party, has applied today to Tuvan Prosecutor's Office. In his statement he claims that huge alexistrative pressure was exercised from the part of state and municipal officials over Life party members in order to make the latter quit the Life party. The Life Party is considered to be the main rival of the United Russia Party (Yedinaya Rossia)--the 'party of power' in the coming parliamentary elections in Tuva and so the pressure was to force the Life party into not participating in the elections.
