Information received concerning the arbitrary arrest, detention and criminal prosecution – following a series of coordinated detentions, interrogations and searches of Indigenous activists across several regions of the Russian Federation on 17 December 2025 – of Ms. Daria Egereva, an Indigenous human rights defender of the Selkup people, and Co-Chair of the International Indigenous Peoples Forum on Climate Change (IIPFCC) which is the official Indigenous Peoples’ constituency to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), and Ms. Natalia Leongardt, the colleague of Ms. Egereva. The information received strongly indicates that the prosecution of Ms. Daria Egereva might constitute acts of intimidation and reprisals for engaging with the United Nations, its representatives, and mechanisms in the field of human rights.
