Alexander Kynov, a Russian political scientist previously designated as a 'foreign agent,' was arrested in September 2023 and detained in Moscow's pre-trial detention center (SIZO-1 'Medved'). He is charged with attempted drug trafficking in large quantities and denies the allegations. His defense claims he was injured during arrest, including a broken tibia, and that he has been denied medical care and crutches while in custody, with reports of poor detention conditions including overcrowding and inadequate sanitation.
