Oleg Fedorov is imprisoned for his alleged religious activity.
On February 17, 2021, authorities in Russian-occupied Crimea, Ukraine, detained Fedorov among others after searching their homes. Authorities accused Fedorov of being a member of the banned Hizb ut-Tahrir organization and spreading its ideas.
On July 7, 2022, the Southern District Military Court sentenced Fedorov to 13 years in prison for “participating in the activities of an organization…recognized as terrorist” (Art. 205.5-2 RCC) and "preparing for actions aimed at the forcible seizure of power or the forcible retention of power” (Art. 30-1/Art. 278 RCC).
