*[Enwl-eng] [can-eecca] Russian environmental activist was severelybeaten and threaten!

[ENWLine]

 

Dear friends,

Horrifying news from Russia. 

On December 28 our colleague Andrey Rudomakha, the head of RSEU/FoE Russia group in Krasnodar - Environmental Watch on North Caucasus - has been severely beaten and hospitalized right after inspection where he and his colleagues have documented illegal land grabbing and construction for another high official residency. 

You can find some more details here

This is also the same group, which ex-prisoner Evgeny Vitishko was from. 

This was a big winter holiday here in Russia until January 9th, so authorities still keep silence. 

Here is a petition to sign www.change.org/rudomakh but only in Russian at the moment. You may use Google translator. Sign individually as much as possible from different countries. 

Also we expect that authorities will not react fast, because we think that they're involved.

So  we need your solidarity and pressure from all countries. 

Yesterday Andrey Rudomakha and his colleagues got letters that demand them emigrate from Russia. See more at:  https://www.facebook.com/ewnc.russia/posts/10156183802209434

Take care and stay safe in 2018!
