In Chelyabinsk, a woman born in 1948 was charged. She "sang hymns" and "prayed to Jehovah God."

On December 5, 2019, the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation for the Chelyabinsk Region charged 71-year-old Valentina Suvorova with continuing the activities of an extremist organization (part 2 of article 282.2 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation) simply because the woman enjoyed the right to freedom of religion. They took a written undertaking not to leave the place.

The investigator of the department for the investigation of especially important cases, Lieutenant Colonel of Justice Alexander Viktorovich Chepenko, accuses the woman of "committing a deliberate crime against the foundations of the constitutional order and state security." The decision to prosecute Valentina Suvorova alleges that she deliberately talked about faith with residents of the city of Chelyabinsk, sang chants, prayed to Jehovah God, and studied religious literature.

Valentina Suvorova committed all these terrible acts from the point of view of investigator Chepenko, "anticipating ... and expecting the onset of socially dangerous consequences in the form of violation of the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of man and citizen." It is noteworthy that in the same document, the lieutenant colonel explains that those who profess the religion of Jehovah's Witnesses are engaged in "performing divine services, familiarizing people with the Holy Scriptures, biblical teachings, principles and norms."

The case against the believer is being handled by the Department for Investigation of Particularly Important Cases of the Investigative Committee of Russia for the Chelyabinsk Region. It is known that in total, at least 10 searches were conducted in the homes of believers in the Chelyabinsk region in 2019.
