Activist Polyudova stops communicating with her relatives

The activist Darya Polyudova, who is serving her sentence in a colony-settlement in Novorossiysk, has not been in contact with her relatives for two weeks, her mother said.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that on August 31, Darya Polyudova, who is serving her sentence in a colony-settlement in the Krasnodar Territory, went on a hunger strike again in protest against her custody conditions. On September 6, Polyudova announced the end of her hunger strike.

According to Tatiana Polyudova, her mother, Darya "has not been in contact for two weeks already; and what has happened to her is unknown."

"They’ve blocked all her phone numbers. We don’t know anything about her for two weeks already," the website of the human rights media project "OVD-Info" quotes Tatiana as saying today.

Darya Polyudova was among the organizers of the march that had been scheduled for August 2014, but never took place; it was directed against Russia's policy towards Ukraine. The Human Rights Centre (HRC) "Memorial" put Darya on the political prisoners’ list; and the human rights organization Amnesty International recognized her to be a "prisoner of conscience".
