FSB starts detaining Jehovah’s Witnesses on Kola, dozens flee to Finland

[Shawnster]

 

Last April, a ruling by Russia’s Supreme Court banned all Jehovah’s Witnesses organizations throughout the country, arguing the religious group to be extremist.

 

On Friday, Murmansk regional authorities’ newspaper Murmanski Vestnik reports about raids made by FSB and the National Guard of Russia (Rosgvardia) in Polyarny on the Kola Peninsula.

 

Two local residents were detained under suspicions of being members of the administrative centre of Jehovah’s Witnesses in Russia, organizing teaching and meetings where reading of banned religious literature took place. Searches were carried out at six addresses in Polyarny.

Wouldn’t it be great if Russia spent its money and energy on hunting down real criminals instead of people who are just practicing their peaceful faith? It gives them a seriously bad reputation.

The people who run the country are real criminals, remind me of the Sanhedrin.
