replies: text: Police in Tambov started to confiscate religious literature from homes of Jehovah's Witnesses in March 2010. At approximately 7:00 on March 17, 2010, three groups of policemen arrived simultaneously at three homes occupied by four families of Jehovah's Witnesses living in the city of Tambov. The residents were awakened by the police who, with court orders in hand, were there to search the homes. The officers confiscated personal libraries, taking all Bible literature as well as business documents, computers, electronic data, even family photo albums and personal correspondence. These events took place shortly after another update of the Federal List of Extremist Materials to which new publications of Jehovah’s Witnesses had been added.
The court order was based on a recent case initiated under Article 282 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, “Inciting Hatred or Hostility, and the Debasing of Human Dignity.” In response to the motion filed by Investigator Igor Avdeyev, a ruling was issued by Judge Lyudmila Ryazantseva of the Leninsky District Court of the City of Tambov that authorized the search. According to the ruling, the officers should confiscate “objects, literature, electronic media advocating religious hatred as well as. . . other documents recording the activity of the religious organization.”
During the search the police did not inform the householders of their rights, provide them with a copy of the court order authorizing the search, or allow them to contact a lawyer. In some cases the householders were not allowed to use their personal telephones. During the search of the Cheprunovs’ apartment, the raised voices of the police officers scared the family’s young daughter, who started to cry and plead that the police not take her parents away from her. Police searching another home, that of the Tagayev family, confiscated a copy of the New Testament published in Moscow in 1988 as well as publications of Jehovah’s Witnesses.http://jw-media.org/rus/20100324.htm
Previously, on December 8, 2009, the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation considered the appeal of a local congregation of Jehovah’s Witnesses in Taganrog (Rostov Region) and upheld the earlier lower court ruling to pronounce 34 pieces of educational religious literature “extremist.” The Supreme Court dismissed the congregation’s appeal. This congregation has now been “liquidated.”
Arli Chimirov, the lawyer representing the interests of Jehovah’s Witnesses, decried the ruling as a ruling against the freedom to manifest religious beliefs, reaffirming a misapplication of the Federal Law on Counteracting Extremist Activity to Jehovah’s Witnesses, who distribute these publications internationally. Jehovah’s Witnesses have appealed this matter to the European Court of Human Rights in order to protect freedom of religion in Russia, including the right to worship using religious literature of one’s choice and to peacefully share one’s beliefs with others. It was feared that there will be many more acts of religious intolerance and hatred taken against Jehovah’s Witnesses because of the Court’s ruling, as has now happened in Tambov.http://jw-media.org/rus/20091208.htmhttp://www.hrwf.net/uploads/Jehovah%27s%20Witnesses%20Russia.pdfhttp://eng.maidanua.org/node/1029http://www.forum18.org/Archive.php?article_id=1415
The Watchtower has been in print for 130 years; it is available in 170 languages and each month some 37 million copies are distributed worldwide. Jehovah’s Witnesses have been practicing their faith in Russia for over 100 years.

message: Hello.
I find issue with the beginning of the article which I feel is not only robotic but also outdated: I see little point in having the dates of three separate censuses, each from different years, with little context or reasoning in the opening paragraph of the article: Additionally there is almost zero short-form information about the city of Tambov itself, the entirety of the beginning being taken up by a population census. I would therefore like to suggest a minor edit to the beginning of the article to make it more readable and concise, perhaps only including the information from the most recent population census, merging the previous ones with a later part of the article, (information for census highlighted here: Russian Census (2021) - Wikipedia) alongside some information about the city itself? I ask for agreement about this only because my knowledge about Tambov extends only to the Oblasts history as a whole, and I am hoping previous editors will be able to edit the opening more effectively than I can. If anything I've said here makes little sense or if I am incorrectly utilizing the format of the talk page then please tell me. Thank you very much. 2A00:23C6:E705:C301:31E4:C31:3CBF:FEF6 (talk) 18:12, 23 April 2023 (UTC)
