A video showing a brutal abduction of #NastyaRybka (aka Anastasia Vashukevich.) In 2018, Rybka shared photos and videos of Oleg Deripaska, entertaining the Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Segey Prikhodko on Deripaska's yacht.
In 2018, Byelorussian escort Rybka was hired to entertain Prikhodko and the party during this trip. The recordings (later banned in Russia) showed the corruption of the Kremlin officials and their close ties to oligarchs. medium.com/@ZarinaZabrisk…
3. Yesterday, Rybka was abducted by Russian policemen and other officials in the transit zone of Moscow airport during her deportation from Bangkok to her country of origin Belarus.
4. The Thailand Immigration Service signed a deportation agreement with Aeroflot, a Russian airline, to deliver Rybka, a citizen of Belarus, to Minsk. In order to prevent her from exiting at transit points, Thailand immigration services handed her passport to the senior pilot.
5. Aeroflot blatantly violated the deportation agreement by allowing Rybka off the plane in Moscow. Aeroflot transferred Rybka's passport (passport of a citizen of Belarus) to the Russian officials, in violation of the deportation contract.
6. The goal of this abduction is to prevent Rybka's contact with the press. As of January 18, 2019, Rybka was in custody and under pressure. She is not allowed to see lawyers. Her records and electronic records are confiscated.
7. Her three associates, residents of Moscow, Alex Leslie, Andrei Poker and Maria Zharkova, also deported from Bangkok, are in custody & denied the right to see lawyers. Police conducted searches at their places of residence and seized all records, telephones, computers, memory..
7.1. ... cards and other electronic information carriers. Relatives and lawyers were not informed about their arrests and the place of their detention for an extended period of time.
8. This is an edited translation of the caption to the YouTube video below. According to the YouTube channel owner who also made the video, he was actively involved in the trial in Thailand.
9. Rybka was imprisoned in Thailand &tried for involvement in prostitution. She offered recordings of Deripaska's conversations proving Russian involvement in the US elections. The trial ended with the abrupt closure, her release from custody with subsequent immediate deportation
10. The Kremlin will do everything to silence Rybka. Meanwhile, on January 16, the Senate blocked a Democratic bid to force the Treasury Department to keep sanctions on 3 Russian companies linked to Deripaska. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
11. From Mueller's investigation, it is known that Manafort has offered Deripaska private briefings about the progress of Trump’s campaign. Deripaska has close ties to the Kremlin, family connections to the "Family" (he is related to Yeltsin by marriage)...
12. ...business partnership w/oligarchs of Putin's circle & ties with intelligence services and organized crime. Deripaska's wife is the daughter of Yeltsin's chief of staff. Deripaska's father-in-law also married Yeltsin's daughter, making him a grandson of Yeltsin by marriage.
13. Important and overlooked: Putin came to power de facto in 1999, picked by Yeltsin. Yeltsin and his "family" empowered corruption. Part of the deal was to ensure the "family" is protected. medium.com/@ZarinaZabrisk…
14. Important: there is no independent business or businessmen in Russia. They are part of a mafia state and report to Putin. Deripaska=Putin. They will crush human lives to keep their power and assets. Sanctions=power/$. Rybka and us--we all are abducted.

Added. Translation of the conversation: The man taking the video (he later explains that he is using a hidden camera in his glasses,) "It's clear: this will end up badly, in any way."
Then, a conversation between two men, "Why, what is it for? Let's wait for the lawyer." Meanwhile, as Nastya is being shoved in the wheelchair, "I don't want to go anywhere." "But the lawyer won't come with us." "He'll just explain to her..." "They won't let him here."
"We'll get out of here through the backdoor, with you." "You won't be able to leave with us. Nastya, hold on on that handle there." Nastya, answering to her friend: "I'll figure out what to hold on to, leave me alone please...
there will be (hard to understand) respected journalists..." "Nastya, they will not be here." She answers, "This is fine." The cops carry her to the elevator and tell the videographer, "No, guys, you can't come here." (in a rather friendly manner.) Nastya says, "It's okay.
Go down the stairs, they might be standing there. (journalists?)" The videographer takes the escalator down and hear Nastya either screaming or singing (sounds rather musical) from the elevator at 1:52 and responds, "I hear!" He then walks all around the Arrivals
and she is not there. At 3:00 he tells someone on the phone, "Well, they did drag her away today. I took the video, my glasses have a built-in camera, and I can provide it. And I have the computer with me so I can download it. Where are we?
We are driving there, to the address that they have stated. They are just trying their best to make sure she doesn't give any interviews to journalists. In any way possible."
Note. This was a mistake to refuse to fly through Kiev by taking Ukrainian airlines. She very clearly wanted to speak to journalists and was expecting to see them. The video has only 8,000 views. People need to know. Please share.
