Moscow office of Amnesty International sealed off

The Moscow office of the Amnesty International human rights organization was sealed off on Wednesday morning, director of the Amnesty International Moscow office Sergei Nikitin said.

"We have absolutely no idea why. We have leased our office directly from the Moscow property management committee, have always paid our rent on time and have not received any notices," Nikitin told Interfax.

Employees who came to the office on Wednesday morning found the door broken, the locks smashed and an alarm system activated. The door was sealed off, and the contact phone number was not reachable, Nikitin said.
