Human rights activists called for the release of mothers who are political prisoners
The 'Support for Political Prisoners. Memorial' project called for the amnesty of 20 mothers who are political prisoners. This is stated on their social media. 'Their imprisonment is essentially a punishment for their children as well. Separation from mothers is a source of suffering for children, who, from any point of view, are not guilty of anything and should not be punished. We are sure that the return of 20 mothers to their children poses no threat to the authorities and, moreover, has no public danger,' their statement reads. The project notes that this action can be implemented through amnesty or pardon. Such precedents have already occurred in the history of modern Russia. The project described the stories of all 20 mothers who are political prisoners in these posts.
