The site is open

|

The purpose of this site is to gather support for Igor Sutyagin, a Moscow researcher accused by the Russian security service, the FSB, of treason and espionage.

Igor was found guilty after a jury trial at the Moscow City Court and then sentenced to 15 years in hard labor. He insists that he is innocent and has appealed the court decision. Igor belives that he was denied his chance to get a fair trial. The many irregularities during the trial give the defense enough grounds for an appeal.

Virtually all who knew Igor and most of his colleagues believe that he is not guilty and his prosecution is simply an example of the power that the FSB has over the Russian judicial system. The FSB has failed to present any evidence of any wrongdoing by Igor. All the case is based on FSB's unsubstantiated claims.
