Which prisoners receive least support? This question is often asked in support events, and is of interest for both those who are regularly writing to prisoners, and those who write to prisoners first time.
Ukrainian citizen Yegor Kazanets was arrested 16th of May. He is accused of writing graffiti ”Slava Ukraine!” (Long live Ukraine) in St. Petersburg. He is charged with ”vandalism”.
Yegor is 22 years old, he graduated from a vocational school of ship construction and applied technologies as a turning and milling machine operator. Lately he has been working as a loader operator and a barman. In his freetime, Yegor was drawing, watching TV series and listening music. Now he is being held in New Kresty prison of St. Petersburg.
No human rights organisation is currently supporting Yegor, and this far he has only received one single letter during his imprisonment.

Also, yesterday Presnya disctrict court of Moscow sent Dmitri Ivanov to two months of remand prison for maintaining Telegram channel ”Protesting Moscow State University”, accused of writing ”fake news” about Russian army. Protesting Moscow State University has been an important source of news about protests in Moscow and Student organising, and Autonomous Action social media has also relied on their coverage.
Most likely he is currently being held in the remand prison #7 in Kapotnya, as usually all the prisoners in Moscow will be first sent to there for two weeks:
Dmitri Aleksandrovich Ivanov, 05.08.1999 g.r.
SIZO-7 ul. Verhnie Polya d. 57 Kapotnya
109382 Moscow, Russia
Letters should be in Russian. You may use google translate for example.
However, as it is no way that letters from abroad will make it to the Russia from abroad in two weeks, it is better to use the FSIN-Pismo online service. It has only Russian interface, but you may try to use it with an automatic translation.
