A court has convicted Alsu Kurmasheva of spreading false information about the Russian army and sentenced her to 6 years in prison after a secret trial in Kazan, Russia. The U.S. called the case politically motivated.
RFE/RL President Stephen Capus denounced Kurmasheva's trial and conviction as a mockery of justice, calling for her immediate release from prison. Her husband stated the charges were related to a book promoting peace.
