Two human rights organizations, Moscow Helsinki Group and For Human Rights, have been denied extensions on their office leases from the Moscow city government, a move they call an attempt to paralyze them. A city spokesperson denies the charge and asserts that the Helsinki Group has been offered alternative quarters. Regarding For Human Rights, the city representative asserts that neighbors complain of disorderly conduct, such as removing license plates from the car of a prominent actor, Emmanuil Vitorgan, but he says he has no complaints against the group.
