Russia's Prosecutor-General Vladimir Ustinov said Chechen rebel commander Salman Raduyev, sentenced December 25 to life imprisonment, deserved the death penalty.
But "Russian law doesn't allow me or the court to pass a sentence other than that which has been passed. We acted, act and will act strictly within the limits of law. If we go beyond the limits of the law, we will be like Raduyev and his kind," Ustinov said.
