In Surgut, the flame of religious persecution does not subside. Two believers were again searched

On December 6, 2019, repeated searches were carried out in the homes of residents of Surgut (Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug), accused of extremism because of their religion. It is known about the searches of Ilkhom Aminzhanov and Timofey Zhukov. Less than a year has passed since believers in this city were tortured for their religious beliefs.

It is already known that the search took place in the apartments of Ilkhom Aminzhanov and Timofey Zhukov. The case against them under Articles 282.2 (1) and 282.2 (2) of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation was initiated on February 11, 2019. The search was led by the investigator of the investigation department for the city of Pyt-Yakh, senior lieutenant of justice Igonina Elena Olegovna. Electronic devices were seized from believers. Information about other possible searches is being clarified.

The wave of terror against peaceful believers in Surgut began on February 15, 2019, when, after mass searches accompanied by brutal torture, at least 15 people were detained and taken to the investigating authorities. And the total number of persons against whom criminal cases have been initiated in the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug is now 22.
