One Yukos employee, Alexey Pichugin, still remains in jail since 2003, accused of murder, and still refuses to go against his former boss Khodorkovsky. Such hatred Putin still has for Yukos that he has one of its members still lingering in jail. A biographical essay (Russian) is available and there are also photos . Journalist Valeriy Shiryaev has written a book on Pichugin’s case “Trial of Vengeance"(English). Incidentally, during his interrogation Pichugin was administered truth-serum and he still had nothing to say.

Another member of Yukos, the gifted, educated and intelligent Vasily Alexanyan, a man with principles, was mocked for his loyalty to Khodorkovsky; he paid with his life: :

Mourning the Death of Vasily Alexanyan (1971-2011)
6 Oct 2011
Khodorkovsky and Lebedev Communications Center
On Monday the family of Vasily Georgievich Alexanyan reported to the media that the young lawyer had passed away following health complications arising from his HIV-AIDS condition. His tragic death at the young age of 39 was not an accident, but the product of cruel and inhuman treatment he received at the hands of Russian prosecutors and prison officials during a prolonged unlawful imprisonment from 2006 to 2009 as part of the state's attack on Yukos.
