Darya Polyudova placed to another cell in penal colony

For the fifth day, Darya Polyudova is on hunger with a demand to stop provocations against her. The activist has succeeded in seeking her transfer to another cell, her mother reported.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that Kuban activist Darya Polyudova went on hunger strike in a penal colony with the demands to stop provocations against her.

Darya Polyudova was among the organizers of the march scheduled in August 2014 but never held against the Russia's policy to Ukraine. The Human Rights Centre (HRC) "Memorial" put her on the list of political prisoners.

According to Tatiana Polyudova, Krasnodar activist Victor Chirikov managed to visit Darya Polyudova in the penal colony. This was written by Tatiana Polyudova in her daughter's account in Facebook.

"For the fifth day, Darya continues her hunger strike. She was transferred to another cell (her provocateur was left in the old cell)," Tatiana Polyudova wrote on her daughter's page.

Meanwhile, according to Tatiana Polyudova, the former cellmate of her daughter was "promised conditional early relief (CER)" for provocations

"The CER <...> was promised to the provocateur for provoking Darya Polyudova. <...> she herself admitted that," wrote Tatiana Polyudova.

Full text of the article is available on the Russian page of 24/7 Internet agency ‘Caucasian Knot’.
