The following information came by phone this morning, 11 July 2006, from
Yelena Starostina, a member of the Siberian Labour Confederation (SKT) in
Omsk. Yelena's husband Vasily Starostin, their underage son Yegor and
several other union and human rights activists from Siberia have been
arrested in Yekaterinburg in the Urals. The activists were travelling by
train to St. Petersburg to participate in the Russian Social Forum and
demonstrations against the G8 summit (11-15 July 2006). They have been
accused of "illegal possession of documents" and it is not known how long
the police intend to hold them in custody. It seems that agents of the
secret service FSB were also involved in the activists' arrest.

or English to the head of police in Yekaterinburg (name not known),
demanding the activists' immediate release. The fax number is 007-343-358
