According to the investigation , Nikita Struy, from May to November 2022, “in order to spread the ideology of Nazism, approve and deny crimes against the peace and security of mankind, war and other crimes, using a mobile phone he repeatedly posted images and comments in various Telegram channels aimed at the rehabilitation of Nazism.
In July and August 2022, in order to ensure the activities of the destructive Telegram channel and Telegram group, he, clearly knowing that their information products were recognized by the court as extremist materials, forwarded publications from these resources to other Telegram communities.”

How to write a letter
✏️ A postcard with words of encouragement (a poem by your favorite author, song lyrics, or a beautiful quote). Trust us, even such simple gestures are very meaningful to a person in jail.
✏️ Your life events. To a person who is in isolation for a long time, any story about your routine endeavors will be a window into normal life. Your day-to-day worries and mundane matters are much more interesting than the daily grind of life behind bars.
✏️ It is important to share news. Mention the most notable and interesting occurrences depending on your pen-pal's interests.
✍️️ Remember that every letter is censored. This means that your letters are read by strangers whose main goal is to limit inmates' access to information or to use it against the prisoners or even you.
So try to avoid:
👉️️ harsh statements regarding ongoing political matters
👉 statements against the authorities and public servants
👉 foul language
👉 discussion of the circumstances of the criminal case
