On April 12, Russia celebrated Yuriy Gagarin’s first flight in space. In the meanwhile, a young Russian scientist, mathematician and FOSS activist Dmitry Bogatov spends the Space Day in detention center. His involvement in decentralized web projects, his interest to privacy and anonymity, his activities as an administrator of tor exit node have brought him under suspicion of the FSB. Accused of “incitation to terrorism” because of some messages posted from his IP address, he will stay detained till June 8 at least, and risks up to 7 years in prison if the Investigation committee ‘proves’ his guilt.

The Debian Project is concerned to hear that one of our members, Dmitry Bogatov, has been arrested by Russian authorities. Dmitry is a mathematics teacher, and an active Debian contributor. As a Debian Maintainer, he worked in the Debian Haskell group and currently maintains several packages for command line and system tools. We await further details of the case against him, but hope that he receives fair treatment and due process. In the meantime, the Debian Project has taken measures to secure its systems by removing Dmitry's keys in the case that they are compromised. The Debian Project honours his good work and strong dedication to Debian and Free Software, and we hope he is back as soon as possible to his endeavours.
We send our full support to him and his family.

Truly enough he is going to need full support to him and his family. Russian justice is a joke.

If I remember correctly, you live in Russia. Am I right? What do you think of this?

I live in Ukraine. I hate any rules "how to life".
These rules are: law, morality, religion, etc.
Kill those who arrested him.

> These rules are: law, morality, religion, etc.

morality is hardly a 'rule'. Without law, as long as humans are what they are mostly, that is 'a particularly violent specie of ape', the world descends into utter chaos. Do we need laws then? Absolutely! Is the legislative system fundamentally just and well functioning? Absolutely not.
What do?
Well, let me borrow form your enlightened repertoire: destroy, of course :D
