Investigators Replenish the List of “Elderly Extremists” With Believers From Nevinnomyssk

On December 12, 2019, in Nevinnomyssk (Stavropol Territory), the Investigative Committee opened criminal proceedings under two “extremist” articles against eight believers, the oldest of whom is 89 years old and the youngest being 54. It is apparent law enforcement officials decided to intensify the persecution of peaceful elderly Jehovah’s Witnesses.
