Radio Free Europe journalist detained by Russian authorities in Kazan — Novaya Gazeta Europe
Alsu Kurmasheva has both Russian and US citizenship and is a resident of Czechia. In late May, she returned to Russia for a family emergency and was detained on 2 June just as she was about to board her flight back to Prague.
Her company Idel.Realii, the Tatarstan and Bashkortostan service of Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, has been a “foreign agent” since 2017, Kurmasheva has not been given the status herself and Idel.Realii said it was unaware of what their journalist stands accused of.
