Vladimir Osechkin, founder of the human rights project Gulagu.net, and Pierre Haffner, president of the Liberté association, demanded in a live broadcast that the European Committee for the Prevention of Torture (CPT) and the head of the Council of Europe Human Rights Commission investigate torture in Russian Federal Penitentiary Institutions.

According to Vladimir Osechkin, representatives of the European Committee for the Prevention of Torture visited Russia in the fall of 2021.
However, European officials have not visited any region where torture is practiced in the institutions of the Federal Penitentiary Service.

Human rights activists said they are withdrawing from the confidentiality agreement with the CPT and want the European regulator to begin influencing the Russian authorities.

Human rights activists demand “to reform the very system of the CPT’s work, because they have not prevented anything in Russia.
