The NGO “Association of Relatives of Kremlin Political Prisoners” publishes the results of its work for September 2025 based on 20 interview protocols with victims and their families, as well as accompanying materials (copies of verdicts/reports, responses from authorities, data on transfers). The review records unlawful deprivation of liberty, enforced disappearances, torture/inhumane treatment, forced displacement (deportations), and “closed trials” — acts that constitute war crimes and crimes against humanity.
