RUSSIA: Jehovah's Witness criminal cases - list

Full list of 245 Jehovah's Witnesses across Russia facing criminal prosecution on extremism-related charges for exercising freedom of religion or belief. Of these, 33 are in pre-trial detention. Trials of 25 are already underway. Eight more have already been convicted. Raids, arrests and interrogations continue.

A total of 245 Jehovah's Witnesses are now thought to be facing criminal prosecution under the Extremism Law for exercising their freedom of religion and belief, as raids, arrests, and interrogations continue across Russia. Another eight have already been convicted.

Muslims who meet to study the works of late Turkish theologian Said Nursi face similar "extremism" prosecutions. Two are currently under criminal investigation, two more are already serving jail terms. Four more have been freed from jail at the end of their sentences in the past year, with one being held in a detention centre awaiting deportation (see below).

At least 25 Jehovah's Witnesses are on trial. All but one of the Jehovah's Witnesses currently under investigation or in court have been charged with or are suspected of organising, participating in, or financing the activities of a banned extremist organisation – these investigations are a direct result of the Supreme Court's 2017 decision to liquidate the Jehovah's Witness Administrative Centre and all its subdivisions as “extremist” and outlaw all their activities.

Between January 2018 and October 2019, officers have conducted raids in the following 44 of Russia's 83 federal subjects (not counting Crimea and Sevastopol): Amur, Arkhangelsk, Republic of Bashkortostan, Belgorod, Bryansk, Dagestan, Ivanovo, Jewish Autonomous Region, Kaluga, Kamchatka, Republic of Kareliya, Kemerovo, Khabarovsk, Republic of Khakasiya, Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Region, Kirov, Kostroma, Krasnodar, Krasnoyarsk, Magadan, Mari El Republic, Republic of Mordoviya, Moscow Region, Murmansk, Nizhny Novgorod, Novosibirsk, Omsk, Orenburg, Oryol, Penza, Perm, Primorye, Pskov, Rostov, Republic of Sakha-Yakutiya, Sakhalin, Saratov, Smolensk, Stavropol, Sverdlovsk, Republic of Tatarstan, Tomsk, Ulyanovsk, and Volgograd.

Fifty-eight women and 187 men are thought to have consequently been charged or named as suspects under Criminal Code Article 282.2, Part 1 ("Organisation of"), or Part 2 ("Participation in") ("the activity of a social or religious association or other organisation in relation to which a court has adopted a decision legally in force on liquidation or ban on the activity in connection with the carrying out of extremist activity"), or Part 1.1 ("Inclination, recruitment or other involvement of a person in an extremist organisation"), as well as Criminal Code Article 282.3, Part 1 ("Financing of extremist activity").

The oldest and youngest people facing prosecution are Yelena Zayshchuk, born in 1934, and Darya Dulova, born in 2000.

Thirty-three people are known to be in pre-trial detention (seven women, 26 men). Two people have been ordered to be detained but have fled the country. Another 27 are under house arrest (5 women, 22 men) and 89 under travel restrictions (28 women, 61 men). Officials have placed 22 people (1 woman, 21 men) under specific sets of restrictions (such as not being allowed to go out at night or use the telephone or internet). One woman and six men are under an obligation to appear before investigators promptly when summoned. Sixty people (15 women, 45 men) appear to be under no restrictions. The status of a further five people (one woman, four men) is currently unknown.

Officials have had 166 of these people added to the Federal Financial Monitoring Service (Rosfinmonitoring) “List of Terrorists and Extremists”, whose assets banks are obliged to freeze, except for small transactions (Two men already convicted, Dennis Christensen and Sergey Skrynnikov, also appear on the List.)

Nine people are on the Interior Ministry's federal wanted list as their whereabouts are unknown. Two are known to have left Russia; three others have also fled the country but are not on the wanted list.

Eight Jehovah's Witnesses have already been convicted under Articles 282.2, Parts 1 and 2 as a direct result of the 2017 ban. Aleksandr Solovyov, from Perm, was fined 300,000 Roubles under Article 282.2, Part 2 on 4 July 2019. Valery Moskalenko was sentenced to 2 years and 2 months' assigned work under Article 282.2, Part 2 on 2 September 2019, which will be waived because of the time he spent in detention; he will, however, be on probation for six months should his appeal be unsuccessful. On 19 September 2019, a court in Saratov imposed the following sentences: Konstantin Bazhenov and Aleksey Budenchuk – 3 years and 6 months' imprisonment; Feliks Makhammadiyev – 3 years' imprisonment; Roman Gridasov, Gennady German, and Aleksey Miretsky – 2 years' imprisonment.

Earlier in 2019, two Jehovah's Witnesses were convicted of extremism-related offences not related to the 2017 ban. Dennis Christensen was sentenced to six years' imprisonment on 6 February 2019 under Article 282.2, Part 1 for “continuing the activities” of the Oryol Jehovah's Witness community, which was liquidated in 2016; he appealed unsuccessfully on 23 May 2019. Sergey Skrynnikov, also accused of “continuing the activities” of the Oryol congregation, was fined 350,000 Roubles on 1 April 2019 under Article 282.2, Part 2. A third man, Arkadya Akopyan, was initially found guilty under Article 282, Part 1 (Incitement of hatred), but was later acquitted in connection with the partial decriminalisation of this offence. A fourth Jehovah's Witness, Yury Zalipayev, remains on trial under Article 280, Part 1 (Public calls for extremist activity), but has had a further charge under Article 282, Part 1 dropped.

Raids and arrests

The raids on Jehovah's Witness homes all appear to follow a similar pattern. Officials from a variety of agencies arrive at Jehovah's Witnesses' addresses usually late at night or early in the morning. They may include the FSB, the Investigative Committee, the National Guard, riot police, and officers from the Interior Ministry's Centre for Combating. The occupants are sometimes made to lie on the floor or face the wall while investigators search their homes.

Officers then confiscate a similar range of possessions – phones, other electronic devices, bank cards, personal photographs, and books – and take the Jehovah's Witnesses, including children and the elderly, to a police station, FSB office, or Investigative Committee branch for questioning.

Such questioning can last for several hours, after which most people are released (some under travel restrictions). Others are kept in temporary detention until investigators decide whether to apply to a court for longer-term restrictive measures – they must do this within 48 hours of the initial detention.

A judge then decides whether to grant an investigator's request to place an individual in detention or under house arrest. An initial period of detention/house arrest lasts for two months from the date the criminal case was opened (usually on or shortly before the date of the raid). Towards the end of this period, investigators must apply to the court again to seek an extension. Detainees themselves may appeal to a higher court to have these restrictive measures lifted or reduced – on occasion, such appeals have been successful.

Increasingly in 2019, investigators have opened cases against individuals without arresting them or raiding their homes, but simply summoning them for questioning.

Torture fears

Those detained are at risk of torture.

In February, seven Jehovah's Witnesses in Surgut in the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Region reported that they had been tortured during their interrogations by being subjected to electric shocks and beatings. A Muslim imprisoned for studying the works of Said Nursi was also tortured during the time he spent in pre-trial detention. Yevgeny Kim was tortured in "the so-called 'press hut', a special room where the necessary testimonies are beaten out [of inmates] by other detainees who are colluding with the prison administration".

Russia is obliged under international law to arrest and put on criminal trial officials suspected of torture, but none of the officials thought to be involved in either of these case is known to have been investigated.

Extremism charges

Jehovah's Witnesses have largely been charged (or named as suspects) under Criminal Code Article 282.2, Part 1 or Part 2 ("Organisation of" or "Participation in the activities of a banned extremist organisation"). For exercising their right to freedom of religion and belief by meeting for worship, they stand accused of "continuing the activities" of the Jehovah's Witness Administrative Centre and its subsidiary local organisations, all of which the Russian Supreme Court ruled extremist and ordered liquidated in April 2017.

Investigators have also charged a few individuals under Criminal Code Article 282.3, Part 1 ("Financing of extremist activity"), or Criminal Code Article 282.2, Part 1.1 ("Inclination, recruitment or other involvement of a person in an extremist organisation").

These prosecutions are happening despite the Supreme Court judges' insistence when they issued the ruling that it "does not amount to prohibition of the religion of Jehovah's Witnesses as such", and despite the fact that the Russian government has twice claimed that the ban "does not contain a restriction or prohibition on individual profession of [Jehovah's Witness] teachings".

Muslims who meet to study the works of late Turkish theologian Said Nursi also face prosecution under the Extremism Law, and in particular under Criminal Code Article 282.2, Parts 1 and 2 for “continuing the activities” of “Nurdzhular”, a “banned extremist organisation” which Muslims in Russia deny exists.

Two Muslims (Denis Vladimirovich Zhukov and Yevgeny Igoryevich Sukharev) are currently known to be under investigation for such alleged offences, both in Krasnoyarsk Region, though both have experienced delays in their cases. Two more (Artur Abdulgamidovich Kaltuyev and Ilgar Vagif-ogly Aliyev) are serving prison sentences, and four have been released from prison within the last year (Sukhrab Abdulgamidovich Kaltuyev, Ziyavdin Badirsoltanovich Dapayev, Komil Olimovich Odilov, and Yevgeny Lvovich Kim). In what appears to be a first, Kim was stripped of his citizenship upon his release and ordered deported to Uzbekistan, his country of birth. At present, he remains in a detention centre for foreign nationals in Khabarovsk in the Far East.
