Putin’s spokesman Peskov commented on the pardon of Vladislav Kanyus, the murderer of student Vera Pekhteleva

"There is a certain procedure for pardon. It is an admission of guilt, a decision at the level of the FSIN, then at the level of the region, then at the level of the federal district, then the central commission, then the documents are submitted to the president. This is one way. There is a second way - when they redeem with blood, including on serious articles. They redeem their crimes with blood on the battlefield, in assault brigades, under bullets, under shells," he said.
