In Moscow there was action in memory of Ivan Khutorskoi

On the night of 20 to 21 November in the metro area Tsaritsyno group of anarchists and anti-fascists had been painted 11 meter graffiti "Ivan." Anarchist and antifascist, who was killed by the system. 17.02.1983 - 16.11.2009.
Also on 21 November, on the Garden Ring Road were stuck stands.

We are convinced that the murder of Ivan was a political move, he was killed deliberately and coolly shot in the head in his apartment building. The murder case has come to naught, and the murderer was never found. Some people believe that the Nazis committed the murder of Ivan, as Ivan has a clear anti-fascist position and was the face of anti-fascist movement.But we believe that in this murder were involved government agencies, it was done professionally, as well as the murder of lawyer Markelov and Anastasia Baburova January 19, 2009.

In our country, anyone who has a viewpoint different from that imposed by politicians, who openly expressed his position against corruption, thoroughly rotten system of oppression, suffering repression, and if the resistance is strong enough - it becomes a direct target for the authorities.So it was with Ivan Khutorskoi, our comrade and friend.

We can not remain indifferent to what is happening, we can not do nothing. We must continue the fight begun by Ivan.
