Marfa Smirnova, a journalist for The Insider, has been facing threats from unidentified individuals since April this year. They use Telegram to send her intimidating messages, warning her to stop writing and producing journalistic materials, including reports.
Smirnova received a disturbing wiretap of her family's Moscow apartment. The audio recording captured conversations within the apartment, and she was also sent a photo of her family members in a car. It is impossible to publish all the threatening screenshots without exposing the personal data of Marfa Smirnova's family obtained by the attackers.
