Today, February 5, anarchists and anti-fascists of "Autonomous Action and other groups piketirvali of the Tyumen region in Moscow. The authorities have agreed to share only 10 participants, and the rest came to the picket had to stand aside. The protesters held a banner "Andrey Kutuzov. Release!" Poster "The words" freedom "and" justice "must know not only philologists" and chanted "Hands off Andrey Kutuzov," your evidence - a complete swindle, "" One for all and All for oneo "" While we are united, we are invincible, "" Are you friends no matter how, take, and the police not fit, "" We Kutuzov in jail will not allow the plant "," state - the main extremist "," Center "E" close Kutuzova release, "No to political repression," "Higher, higher black flag, the state - the main enemy."

The action took place in the nationwide day of united action "Extremism is not: meet Andrew Kutuzov!

During the picket, journalists and passers-by were handing out leaflets reading:

"Freedom to Andrei Kutuzov" No to political persecution!

April 14, 2010on suspicion of distributing extremist material was detained and interrogated a teacher, Tyumen State University Andrei Kutuzov. On the same day in his apartment was searched. Today Andrey Kutuzov was formally charged under Art. 280 of the Penal Code, "Public calls for extremist activities." Suspicions were based on the fact that it "learned" bogus witnesses, whom he allegedly handed over Oct. 30 for "extremist" leaflet.Then another six months continued investigations (interviews, examinations, etc.). In particular, the court had found illegal actions of the investigator, who ruled Kutuzov subscription to disclose information from a preliminary investigation. 12 October Kutuzov was charged. From 25 November at the trial of Andrei Kutuzov, the courtroom is "extremist fighters" try to fill in "their" people to get there as little as possible of the public.

According to the statement of the Council of the initiative groups of citizens and Tyumen, in Russia today, every socio-political activity, not directed, directly or indirectly "from above", presents a serious risk to its sponsors and participants.Hardly any critical with respect to the existing political order statement is often viewed by law enforcement authorities as "extremism." Grassroots civic initiatives (even on resettlement yard) - this "conspiracy", a public speech (picket, rally, demonstration), including those agreed under the law - "an attempt to revolt."Civil society activists are administrative and judicial harassment.

Civil society activists - is at risk. The problem is that the repressive system of moderate, civilian call extremely dangerous. Currently, in Tyumen, as in other Russian cities launched this campaign of pressure against civil society activists. The apogee of the repressive company in Tyumen became the fabrication of a criminal case against Andrei Kutuzov.With the filing of the Tyumen Center to combat extremism and the FSB is accused of producing and distributing "extremist" leaflets at a rally on Oct. 30, 2009. The rally is just focused on the problem of lawlessness, which takes place in different cities of Russia as a result of activities of the "E". And now - for a rally gave an asymmetrical response, compiling a manifestly "extremist" flyer illiterate texts which supposedly handed Andrew.

Who is Andrey Kutuzov Kutuzov? This is a young scientist, Ph.D., professor of Tyumen State University.He teaches translation and other related disciplines, he worked as a translator. Developed several courses on their own the copyright to his scientific interests. In science, he is engaged in Corpus Linguistics, Applied Theory of Translation, online discourse, a regular speaker at conferences in different cities, each year publishes several scholarly articles. Believes that science - the best thing in the world.Here is his complete research and teaching resume - http://tc.utmn.ru/node/26 .

In addition, Andrew - member of the movement "Autonomous Action". This left the movement, promoting the national government and direct democracy, do not accept the hierarchy and authoritarian forms of organization. In Tyumen, "Autonomous Action" has repeatedly supported the grass-roots initiatives of city residents, who have struggled with sealing buildings, the abolition of transportation benefits, and other violations of their rights.Active AD-Tyumen and participated in the creation of the Council of the initiative groups of citizens and Tyumen.

Andrew was not only a teacher and civic activist, he is also a traveler, Hitch, visited various parts of the former Soviet Union - from the Crimea to Lake Baikal. Two years ago, the company has five of his comrades walked plateau tableland: one of the most remote and beautiful places in the Krasnoyarsk region, the Arctic Circle, near Norilsk. In summer 2010, already being in the status of the suspect, drove Hitchhiker's Guide to Central Asia and the Pamirs and back.

Campaign law enforcement agencies against Andrei aims to discredit and neutralize known Tyumen civic activist, to intimidate others, to suppress the independent civic initiative.The case against Andrei Kutuzov has political overtones. We believe that in order to comply with the rule of law should discontinue the prosecution or to acquit. Furthermore, we demand an internal investigation in Uzbekistan FSB Tyumen Region and the Center counterkstremizmu by police of the Tyumen region for falsification of the criminal case.

We urge all those who in solidarity with us, sign a petition in support of Andrei Kutuzov.
