Actions of Law Enforcement Officers

Another search in the house of a believer took place in the Stavropol region

Stavropol Territory

On the morning of July 9, 2019, in Nevinnomyssk (Stavropol Territory), special services searched the house of at least one believer. According to unconfirmed information, during special events, the security forces planted banned literature on the believer. This information is verified.

Mass raids on believers have already taken place in Nevinnomyssk, provoked by the fact that law enforcement officers on the ground misinterpret the law on extremism. In November 2018, special services, suspecting local residents of being Jehovah's Witnesses, among others, detained a man with a group I disability , parents of an infant and a 77-year-old man who, as a result, required emergency medical care.

Information about other cases of violation of the rights of believers in the region is published on the news page of the Stavropol Territory . You can find out why banned literature is being planted on Jehovah's Witnesses.
