Sergey VOROBYOV
(Сергей ВОРОБЬЕВ)


Position: State Prosecutor


As prosecutor in the politically motivated case against the prominent human rights defender Oleg Orlov, Sergey Vorobyov asked to sentence Oleg Orlov to 2 years and 11 months in prison, arguing that Orlov’s article against Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine was motivated by “ideological hostility and hatred”. Oleg Orlov, aged 70, is one of the most respected and longest-serving human rights defenders in Russia, one of the leaders of the 2022 Nobel Peace Prize-winning organisation Memorial Human Rights Defence Center (HRDC “Memorial”), which was liquidated as part of the systematic, wide-scale crackdown on the freedoms of expression, peaceful assembly, and association in Russia. Oleg Orlov was charged with and sentenced for allegedly “discrediting” the Russian army after publishing an opinion piece in French media against Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine.
Therefore, Sergey Vorobyov is responsible for serious human rights violations in Russia by violating freedom of opinion and expression.
