The Moscow City Court left journalist Nadezhda Kevorkova under arrest

The Moscow City Court did not satisfy the appeal against the decision of the Basmanny District Court. He previously arrested 65-year-old writer and journalist Nadezhda Kevorkova, accused of justifying terrorism, until at least August 6.

The reason for initiating a criminal case was posts in Nadezhda’s personal Telegram channel. One of them is the text of the murdered journalist Orhan Dzhemal, her close friend.

Another reason was another post from 2021, which concerned the “justification” of the activities of the Taliban, banned in the Russian Federation. It is noteworthy that at the end of May 2024, the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Justice announced that the Taliban could be removed from the list of prohibited organizations.

The defense noted that Nadezhda Kevorkova is an active volunteer of the Solidarity Foundation, helping seriously ill children and low-income people. The journalist repeatedly visited the Gaza Strip with the support of the Russian Foreign Ministry and covered the situation in the Middle East, worked in Iraq and Iran.

Kevorkova is the author of three books about Palestine and numerous articles on religion.
