Other good news is the Antifa prisoners Vahtang Devitlidze from Russia and Yuri Yurevich from Belarus have both been released from prison. Yuri, who was on remand, apparently received a 1.5 years "public works" sentence after he was convicted of fighting with a neo-nazi.
And finally, Olga Aleksandrovna Nevskaya, the Russian eco-activist serving 6 years for arson, criminal damage and causing explosions in protest at the war in Chechnya, has been released from prison.
However, despite the good news, ELP has also been told about a number of new prisoners who are being added to our Antifa lists.
Russian Antifa activist, Aleksey Bychin, has been remanded for fighting with neo-nazis. Whilst Andrei Mergenov has been sentenced to 3 years for a fight with neo-nazis.

Finally, ELP has learnt about an Anarchist/Animal Rights activist who has been jailed for non-animal rights reasons. Pavel Delidon was indispute with his employer over some wages which he had not received. Pavel allegedly took direct action to try and gather his wages and has subsequently been jailed, for merely trying to take money owed to him.
Pavel's address is:
Pavel Delidon
