Sources close to law enforcement structures in Russia's Republic of Tatarstan told RFE/RL on January 11 that a local anti-war activist, Zulfia Sitdikova, was charged with the rehabilitation of Nazism and discrediting Russian armed forces involved in Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine. Investigators ordered her not leave the republic’s capital, Kazan. The charges stem from Sitdikova's two public actions in 2023 protesting the war in Ukraine. In 2022, she was fined for wearing a hoodie with the words "No War" on it while attending a Pro-Kremlin concert in Kazan. To read the original story by RFE/RL's Tatar-Bashkir Service, click here.
