Streltsova Yuliya Andreevna

On October 31, 2024, the Investigative Committee of the Sverdlovsk Region opened a criminal case on the creation of an extremist community and involving people in its activities. According to the investigation, the participants of the Anti Pytki project posted on social networks "information aimed at inciting social hatred and enmity against certain categories of citizens and law enforcement officers, involving prisoners in their activities through the ideology of the AUE movement, which the Supreme Court recognized as "extremist" in 2020. The inmates allegedly, under the influence of 'AntiTorture', beat other prisoners in hospital wards where they were undergoing treatment. At least seven people were detained — in Severodvinsk, Koryazhma, Norilsk, Tulun, Usolye-Sibirskoye, St. Petersburg and Moscow. In St. Petersburg, law enforcement detained 53-year-old Olga Korneva, in the Krasnoyarsk Territory - 35-year-old Elvira Saifullina and 40-year-old Zaydulla Rezvanov, in the Irkutsk region - 27-year-old Ksenia Garina and 32-year-old Victoria Kutilova, and in the Arkhangelsk region - 24-year-old Yulia Streltsova. All of them, except for Streltsova, were subscribers to the Anti Pytki channel, but were not its moderators or members of the project team. All defendants in the case were sent into custody. The "AntiTorture" project was created in 2023. Its goal is "resistance to the torture regime in places of detention, usurpation of power and official crimes." Information about torture in Russian colonies was published on community platforms. The creators of the movement are Roman Rugevich. He left Russia and received political asylum in France. On April 5, 2025, the Investigative Committee of the Sverdlovsk region reported the detention of another female suspect - a resident of the Stavropol Territory, whose name is not disclosed. It is claimed that the woman, 'having learned about the exposure of her accomplices' in the fall of 2024, fled to the territory of the Novosibirsk region. She was also charged with participation in an extremist community and incitement or involvement of a person in the activities of an extremist community. The woman was sent to a pre-trial detention center.
