A Russian court abruptly handed Yuri Dmitriev, a historian of Stalin-era crimes, a 13-year jail term on Tuesday after overturning an earlier sentence on charges that his supporters say were fabricated to punish him for his work.

Dmitriev, 64, was found guilty in July of sexually abusing his adopted daughter and sentenced to 3-1/2 years in prison by the Petrozavodsk city court in Russia’s northwestern Karelia region. He had denied the charges, which his lawyer and supporters say were fabricated because of his work with rights group Memorial.

The July sentence would have seen Dmitriev freed in November due to time served, but Karelia’s Supreme Court said on its website on Tuesday that he would now be held for 13 years in a high-security penal colony.

Trump’s hero at work.

Imagine having your brain drain fully compensated by your jail population

RS knows the west like to poke its long nose inside its ass so it arms up the mighty nuclear to break any nose intrusion.

Вертухайское правосудие в деле .

It is so disheartening that the US no longer has moral credibility when it protests such injustices.

Look at those handcuffs. Russia wins the prize for inhumanity and lying lying lying. Such brutal treatment

Awful and thoughts with him. realDonaldTrump can anything be done?

Walks the Talk.

If the true reason he has been jailed is due to exposing Stalin's purges, Russia should hang its head in shame.

🤬

It seems realDonaldTrump AGBARR r taking pages frm their playbook

Great time to read about another gulag historian, Alexander Solzhenitsyn... (If you have the time, read his series TheGulagArchipelago)

JFC.

US in 5 years if Trump has his way. Rewrite history.

He WAS SEXUAL ABUSER....This Reuter title is just manipulation ..I imagine if a sexual abuser were caught in UK and Reuters would try out to whitewash his image

Sleeping on the job?

Anti-Stalin sentiment is not a taboo in Russia (and hasn't been for decades). This guy is probably just a pedo who got caught.

If we offer to pay Trump’s debt to Putin maybe Russia will send him to their secret gulags in Siberia.

So sad Steve Jobs had to go like this
