Former journalist loses latest appeal against treason sentence in Russia
(FILES) Former journalist specialising in defence Ivan Safronov, who was arrested in July 2020 on treason charges and is accused of passing state secretes to Czech intelligence, appears in court in Moscow on April 4, 2022. Russia's supreme court on August 2, 2023 rejected an appeal by prominent investigative journalist Ivan Safronov against his 22-year prison sentence for high treason. Safronov, 33, was convicted last year of giving Russian military information to Czech intelligence and a Russian-German political scientist, charges he denies. His prison sentence has been criticised by human rights groups and former colleagues, who argue he was targeted for writing about embarrassing incidents in the Russian army.
