Antifascist Targeted in Arson Attack (Russia)

Neo-Nazis are suspected of being behind an arson attack on the apartment of a prominent anti-fascist activist in Izhevsk, Russia, according to a May 23, 2010 article in the independent daily "Novaya Gazeta." On the evening of May 23, someone set Oleg Serebrennikov's apartment door on fire, while also shooting 11 bullets at it and leaving threatening graffiti behind. Police are investigating the incident. In February 2004, far-right thugs beat Mr. Serebrennikov, who was taking part in an anti-war demonstration. Four of the attackers were subsequently sentenced.
