Russian Parliamentarian Wants a Terrorist Prison on Svalbard

The Russian parliamentarian Ivan Sukharev proposes to establish a high-security prison for terrorists on Svalbard.

This is reported by the Barents Observer.

The prison, which will exclusively house terrorists, must be built in the Arctic, believes Sukharev. 

The politician wants it to be located either on Svalbard or Novaja Semlja.

Sukharev has sent a letter with the proposal to the head of the Russian Federal Correctional Service.
