Yuri Kolotinsky

In May 2021, mass searches in the homes of Jehovah's Witnesses, including Kolotinsky's, took place in Barnaul and surrounding towns.

In October 2022, the investigation team opened a criminal case against Anatoly Sarychev and Yuri Kolotinsky, combining their cases together with the case of Mikhail Reshetnikov. They signed a promise not to leave the country.

In December 2022, the criminal case went to court. On May 13, 2024 Kolotinsky was sentenced to two years and three months with suspended sentence.
