Nasty Rybka, Alex Lesley and Others Free from Thai Prison

Thailand Bail provided legal representation and legal advice for Nastya Rybka (real name Anastasia Vashukevich) and Alex Lesley (real name Aleksandr Kirillov) during their criminal trial in the Pattaya Provincial Court. Since early 2018, Nastya and Alex, as well as 6 other Russians and Belarusians, faced up to 20 years in prison for 3 separate criminal charges in Thailand. Facing 20 years in a Thai prison is challenging, but the result was extremely positive, with Nastya, Alex, and the other 6 having their cases ended on 15 January 2019 after arranging a plea deal that saw them plead guilty to all charges. The resulting sentence was time served, and they were quickly deported, having just left today, 17 January 2019, less than 48 hours after having been sentenced.
