In Bashkiria, Russia, four persons involved in the activity of Bashkir opposition web site “Ufa-Gub” were detained on “extremist activities” charges. Specifically, they were accused of having published on the site excerpts from a third-party author’s book, highly critical towards current Bashkir leadership. Investigators maintain that the excerpts “called to extremist actions.” Earlier the site itself was banned by a court order, but simply moved to a non-Russian domain.
