"In the first reading, a law was passed to allow certain categories of prisoners to serve. Yes, we need to remove major corrupt officials so that there are no loopholes. Of course, we need to think about drug addicts, but many who want to serve should be given this opportunity," Honcharenko said.

MP Zheleznyak added that 281 MPs voted in favor of the draft law, and that they plan to remove the provision that allows for the mobilization of prisoners for serious crimes before the second reading.
