The press service of the Moscow criminal courts said on December 19 that the Meshchansky district court sentenced human rights activist Alyona Krylova, who was earlier extradited from Kyrgyzstan, to two years in prison on a charge of organizing an extremist group. Krylova, who fled Russia earlier this year fearing for her safety, was arrested in Kyrgyzstan in June. Krylova had officially asked for asylum in Kyrgyzstan, but Bishkek rejected her request and extradited her to Russia. Krylova is a member of the Left Resistance group that was labeled as extremist in Russia in 2021. To read the original story by RFE/RL's Kazakh Service, click here.
