During the court hearing upon the case of the International Youth Human Rights Movement which took place on November 8, the Federal Registration Service withdrew its claim against the organization. Now it is fully restored in its rights after it was unlawfully closed several months ago.
According to the FRS officials, ”the guilty were punished”. As Andrey Yurov, the Honorary President of the YHRM, comments, ”It would be possible to avoid many conflicts, if there was an expert group on attached to the FRS dealing with solving complex situations in sphere of the freedom of association. Up to 80 per cent of such situations may be solved by expertise and not confrontation. The Moscow Helsinki Group, Youth Human Rights Movement and our colleagues could work in such a group”.
This victory would have been impossible without the support from the YHRM participants and correspondents, its partners and colleagues from different countries and regions. The solidarity campaign played a vital role in the development of the case.
