700 minors on terrorist register

What's happening?

In Russia, news is increasingly appearing about teenagers accused of terrorism, sabotage, treason or extremism. Arsons of relay cabinets, anti-war statements, messages on the Internet, provocations via Telegram - behind such stories are the real fates of minors. The guest of the broadcast is Dmitry Anisimov, human rights activist.

We talked about:

• how many minors are persecuted today;

• why it is extremely difficult to collect such statistics;

• how provocations and recruitment via the Internet work;

• who becomes involved in cases of terrorism and sabotage;

• why many processes take place behind closed doors;

• how the state uses “terrorist” articles against teenagers;

• why families often choose to remain silent.
