Svetlana's daughter Sasha and fiancee Sandy Booker were killed on October 26, 2002 when Putin pumped poisonous gas into the Nord-Ost Theater.
Svetlana devoted her life to fighting the Putin regime and the FSB.
In her statement she tells about Andrew Mogilyansky's effort to help the Nord-Ost victim organization uncover the truth about the gas, especially in uncovering and providing scientific evidence in September 2003 (this information became a crucial tool in the activists' anti-Putin campaign in the run-up to the March 2004 Russian presidential elections).
She also describes her and Mogilyansky's testimony in November 2003 to the FBI and a Grand Jury in which they accused Putin and the FSB of murdering Sandy Booker, a US citizen.
Three weeks later Andrew flew to Russia, where the FSB fabricated the evidence of his participation in "Berenika".
Dmitry's 14-year-old daughter Nina was killed on October 26, 2002 when Putin pumped poisonous gas into the Nord-Ost Theater.
Dmitry became a vocal anti-regime dissident in Russia. He helped form ROO "Nord-Ost" and became one of its leaders. ROO "Nord-Ost" took a staunchly anti-Putin position in 2003-2004.
In his statement Dmitry tells how Andrew Mogilyansky helped in the formation of ROO "Nord-Ost" and, most importantly, how Mogilyansky uncovered the truth about the gas in September 2003 and provided this evidence to Dmitry and to ROO "Nord-Ost".
This information was key in their subsequent anti-Putin and anti-FSB campaign.
The FSB's "evidence" alleging Andrew's involvement in "Berenika" emerged mere weeks later, during Andrew's next trip to Russia.
Alex Goldfarb is a prominent Russian dissident and a staunch anti-Putin activist.
In 2002-2004 he ran the New-York based International Foundation for Civil Liberties, which assisted many Nord-Ost activists in their plight to hold the Russian government accountable for its use of poisonous gas at Nord-Ost in October 2002.
He describes Andrew's anti-Putin regime activism in supporting a vocal group of anti-Putin activists in Russia, such as obtaining crucial evidence on the gas deployed by the Russian government at Nord-Ost.
He also mentions Andrew's help to Svetlana Gubareva, a prominent anti-Putin activist, in arranging her trip to the USA to testify to the FBI and a Grand Jury in Washington, D.C. in November 2003, which was done by Andrew in conjunction with Goldfarb's own civil rights foundation. Andrew Mogilyansky and Alex Goldfarb collaborated in helping Svetlana prepare her testimony, the main focus of which was on accusing the Russian regime of murdering an American citizen. Andrew also testified to the FBI about these events, and provided the FBI with contact information of hundreds of additional witnesses.
Goldfarb provides his opinion on the truthfulness of any "evidence" emanating from Russia, especially when it concerns those like Andrew who actively oppose Putin's regime.
Natalya's close friend Olga Romanova was the first victim of the Nord-Ost siege. She died on October 23, 2002 while trying to save the most helpless hostages.
Olga's heroic death and Natalya's efforts to help Olga's family inspired Andrew to start the International Foundation for Terror Act Victims (IFTAV) whose first project was to assist Nord-Ost victim families. Natalya became IFTAV's "Erin Brockovich" in Moscow, personally interviewing hundreds of family members of Nord-Ost victims..
Natalya describes IFTAV's assistance to Nord-Ost victim families, its cooperation with ROO "Nord-Ost" and Dmitry Milovidov, and the significance of the information Andrew Mogilyansky provided to ROO "Nord-Ost" in the fall of 2003.
She also provides her own first-hand eyewitness account of what Mogilyansky was really doing in in Moscow in December 2003, when the FSB was busy fabricating the "Berenika" participation evidence against him.
