Bandits carrying Investigative Committee investigator IDs resumed their “work” early this morning.
At 6:50 a.m., they came to search the home of the parents of Nikita Kulachenkov from ACF’s investigations department. This is already the second search of their home, and its purpose is clearly just to harass Nikita by tormenting his relatives. Basically: to make his life miserable.
A second search is now underway at the home of Anna Dodonova, the coordinator of our #Twenty project. Once, they took her phone away right during questioning at the Investigative Committee, formally recording it as a seizure. And now they’ve come to her home.
The pretext for the searches is still the same.
Let me remind you that it was Anya who was not allowed into Monday’s “Open Government” meeting (a Russian public policy forum), where our bill against illicit enrichment was being considered. So she had to listen on the livestream as Mikhail Fedotov, head of the Human Rights Council, gravely and anxiously declared that ACF’s anti-corruption proposals were “an attempt to return to 1937” (a reference to the height of Stalin-era repression).
I hope Mikhail Fedotov slept well last night, and that no one disturbed his peace. The fighters against the fighters against corruption are standing guard over the foundations of this regime. They will not allow a “new 1937” for the comfortable world of top officials with state dachas, large apartments, black government Mercedes sedans, and secret Swiss bank accounts.
