Write a letter

Resident of Novosibirsk. On 19 April 2019, a search took place in Seredkin's flat. On 21 April he was taken under house arrest on charges of involvement in the activities of an extremist organisation in connection with his involvement in the Jehovah's Witnesses community. Representatives of this community are prosecuted under extremist articles solely for religious activities: meetings, joint worship services, attracting new supporters. In October he was released on his own recognisance. On 15 November 2022 he was sentenced to six years in a general regime colony, taken into custody in the courtroom.

How to write the letter?

Getting started
What can I write about?
On censorship: what can’t I write?
Is it allowed to send photographs?
What language do I use in my letter?
What are the limits on sending letters?
Should I expect a reply and do I have to respond?
How do I maintain the correspondence?
I would like to send letters by myself, how do I do it?
How else can I support Russian dissidents?
It says that the prisoner I was assigned was tried for terrorism, or extremism or something else scary, what’s up with that?
