The Administrative Center of Jehovah's Witnesses appealed to the court against the warning of the Prosecutor General's Office

On June 1, 2016, a lawsuit was filed with the Tverskoy District Court of Moscow to declare illegal the "Warning on the inadmissibility of extremist activities" issued by the Deputy Prosecutor General of Russia. Earlier, Jehovah's Witnesses appealed the warning to the Prosecutor General of the Russian Federation Y. Chaika.

Prevention consists of a number of legal contradictions. For example, the prosecutor's office charges the Administrative Center with the fact that 88 publications of the Witnesses are included in the list of extremist materials, although the prosecutor's office itself has consistently insisted in the courts that the Administrative Center should not be involved in the case, since its "interests are not affected" (the organization is not the publisher or copyright holder of the materials).
