On February 8, Danil Chertykov turns 32 years old. He is celebrating his birthday in captivity for 4th time.
Danil Chertykov is an anarchist and antifascist from Yekaterinburg. He worked as a veterinarian, and in his free time devoted himself to music, playing guitar in the riot-folk band Rocker Balboa.
On August 31, 2022, Danil was having dinner at a restaurant with friends and his partner. When they went out for an evening walk around the city, they were detained and beaten by armed, masked men who turned out to be law enforcement officers. Danil was tortured and later charged with participation in a terrorist organisation and preparation of a terrorist act.
Despite the harsh conditions of imprisonment, Danil remains strong in spirit. While already in custody, he officially registered his marriage with his partner Alyona, who became his public defender. Danil has also taken up drawing, reads many books, and continues to stay physically active.
