Siberian blogger Kungurov, who spent two years in prison for “justification of terrorism” from 2016-18, was arrested again in November 2019 for 15 days. He was accused of arousing hatred with a social media article, but was not even brought to the court for his hearings. Kungurov left Russia after the outbreak of war in early 2022 and is currently living in Georgia. His application for asylum in Georgia was rejected and he is currently attempting to challenge the decision in court.
