Case of Natalia Lubnevskaya

“Most of us wore blue Press vests, and we all had special badges. It was clearly visible that we were not participants in the event. The man firing was standing ten meters away from me: he took aim, and decided that it was okay to shoot at an unarmed person who was at work who had neither threatened him with anything, nor even seen him.”

Case of Valeriya Kastsiuhova

"After a search in our flat, they took all the equipment and detained Valeriya. KGB officers asked her, 'Why didn't you leave?' And she said it was her principled decision to stay.
