The Ministry of Justice has added ten more people to the register of those who have left Russia and are subject to temporary restrictions. Mediazona reports.

The list includes:

  • journalist Yuri Dud,
  • writer Boris Akunin (real name Grigory Chkhartishvili),
  • poet Dmitry Bykov,
  • publicist Alexander Nevzorov,
  • politicians Leonid Volkov and Dmitry Gudkov,
  • former heads of Navalny’s regional offices Ksenia Fadeeva and Sergey Ukhov,
  • investigative journalist Sergey Yezhov
  • and human rights defender Sergey Davidis.

The register was launched on 23 October. People added to it are those who are abroad and, according to the Russian authorities, evade serving a criminal or administrative sentence. Meduza described the register as a kind of ‘enemies of the people’ list, while the project “Word of Defence” called it a ‘register of civic execution.’

Those included in the list may have their money and property frozen, may be banned from carrying out real estate transactions, and may lose access to banking apps, electronic government services, and certain consular services.
