News, telecasts, football matches, etc – test broadcasting of a TV studio with convicts as journalists and cameramen has been started in a penal colony in Kamchatka.
      
      The viewers are about 1 thousand persons who serve their terms for different crimes. The Office of Public Prosecutor hopes that the colony’s own TV will have a positive influence on the people isolated from society, and promote the primary goal of any correctional facility - re-education of prisoners and their returning to the society as adequate people.
