UPDATED CORRECTION: During our conversation we discussed a Jehovah's Witness named Dennis Christensen who is serving 6 years in a Russian prison for practicing his faith. In the conversation I referred to him as a Dutch citizen. He is, in fact, from Denmark and is a Danish citizen. I regret the error.
A topic many in America are not aware of! This week's guest is a Russian citizen and blogger named Anton Chivchalov. Anton has been following a disturbing campaign happening in Russia whereby members of Jehovah's Witnesses are being arrested, tried and sentenced to prison for practicing their faith in the Russian Federation, a country that has provisions to protect freedom of speech and freedom of religion. This podcast episode discusses the bizarre application of the country's "anti-extremism" law to ensnare Jehovah's Witnesses and outlaw their organization. We also discusses some of the methods used to investigate and try Jehovah's Witnesses under the statute, as well as the inhumane treatment some Witnesses are reporting at the hands of Russian law enforcement officials.
