A couple more profiles of our brothers in prison since 16th of May

jw-russia.org:

 

Alexander Suvorov - who is he?

 

Vladimir Kochnev - who is he?

 

The two articles highlight that both brothers are peace-loving persons.

Addresses included

 

[humble bumble bee]

More problems for our br. and sr. in Shua (Ivanovo region) In Shuya new searches, a 10-year-old child is questioned

 

The first searches were in April. In May/June Dmitry Mikhailov was arrested and send to prison, suspected of "financing" extremist activities.

On June 26 police conducted new searches

 

(From the article but edited slightly)

According to investigators, a hidden video camera is installed in one of the believers' apartments. After the new searches, the believers were taken to the investigative committee body. During the interrogation, in the presence of the school psychologist, the child (a 10-year-old girl) was forced to disclose the confession of the family, she burst into tears. Her mother was threatened that if she refused to cooperate with the investigation, she could be charged with another crime - "involving minors in committing a crime".

 

New criminal cases were initiated and a written undertaking not to leave the place with four local residents, one man and three women, including Elena Mihailova, the spouse of Dmitry Mikhailov.

 

To interrogate one of our young ones and sending one of our sisters to prison to me is a new low but not unexpected.

 

For the first time for her Christian faith a young woman was sent to prison

There is one address for Sergei Valeryevich Polyakov and another for Anastasia Andreevna Polyakova to send letters of support.

Anastasia and Sergei can send letters of support. Letters in foreign languages in the SIZO do not miss, except for children's drawings. 

Address for letters:

 

Sergei Valeryevich Polyakov, born in 1972, PKU "Investigation isolator № 1 of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia for Omsk region", ul. Ordzhonikidze, 86, Omsk, 644007. Electronic letters are also received through the " FSIN-letter " system. (You can not discuss topics related to criminal prosecution in letters.)

 

Anastasia Andreevna Polyakova, born in 1984, PKU "Investigation isolator № 1 of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia for Omsk region", ul. Ordzhonikidze, 86, Omsk, 644007.

Quote

Yuri Zalipayev faces up to 5 years of imprisonment under part 1 of Art. 282 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation - "incitement of hatred or enmity, as well as humiliation of human dignity"

The prosecutor is accusing him of humiliation of human dignity? (I don't get it)

 

The rest of the article shows how low they are stooping resorting to out-and-out falsehoods! Are they trying to put all 175 thousand of our brothers in prison?

jw-russia.org Criminal case for the faith initiated in the Amur Region, searched

 

From 7:00 am on July 20, 2018 in Blagoveshchensk, three searches were conducted in Br&Sr homes. The authorities were even eavesdropping on them, invading their privacy.  One criminal charge was made.

 

[humble bumble bee]

Three more searches on the 22nd of July in Berezovsky

jw-russia.org: In the Kemerovo region, two believers are placed in custody

 

Quote

One of the apartments officers UFSB in the Kemerovo region decided to storm from the balcony, despite the fact that the hostess opened the door to another group of employees. At the same time, a window was broken, the splinters of which injured the landlady (cutting the forehead and hands).

 

Brothers Sergei Britvin (who is disabled) and Vadim Levchuk, are the ones placed in custody on the 24th of July until September 19, 2018. A criminal case was instituted in part 2 of Art. 282.2 - The basis of this case, as in the case of Dennis Christensen , is the testimony of a "secret witness" whose name the investigation does not disclose.

 

Ez 9:4 sighing and groaning over all the detestable things that are being done.

jw-russia.org: At the airport of Krasnoyarsk, a believer was arrested

 

July 3, 2018 at 4:20 am in the Krasnoyarsk airport Emelyanovo, FSB officers arrested 44-year-old Andrei Stupnikov. He is suspected of professing the religion of Jehovah's Witnesses.

When registering for the flight, two men approached Andrei and his wife. One of them produced an ID card from an FSB officer. Andrei was announced that he had been detained and would be taken to the FSB of Russia by the Krasnoyarsk Territory on ul. Dzerzhinsky, 18. According to state security officials, within 2 days the court must decide on Andrei the question of the measure of restraint.

 

Usually the report is about searches and breaking down doors of homes, being stopped this way surprised me.

 

When you see pictures like this one, with brother Stupnikov in the middle, and the friends who came out to meet him when the court decided to release him from house arrest, you can tell how courageous they are. And these peace-loving brothers and sisters are the ones the King of the North wishes to annihilate!

It has been postponed. According to jw-russia.org, the verdict will be announced tomorrow, June 9, at 11 AM Russia time.

[sunshine]

Well the King of the North continues as our dear brother SHPAKOVSKY has been sentenced.  I know they want to distress us and terrify us but it will not work - the joy of Jehovah remains our stronghold.  I will, pray for my brother in particular this evening as it seems the brothers are often "welcomed" to a new facility by a thorough beating.  May his heart be strong.

I saw that on jw.org.

 

https://www.jw.org/en/news/jw/#newsAlerts

 

But I'm still wondering what the King of the North expects to gain by these tactics. One of their "experts" said that as soon as a few Witnesses have been sentenced to long prison terms, all the other Witnesses will immediately turn away from their religion.

 

Hhmm. There's a lot he doesn't know about Jehovah's Witnesses, isn't there?
