ICIJ is deeply concerned by reports from Moscow that investigative reporter Roman Anin has been taken in for questioning following a raid on his apartment by Russia& #39;s Federal Security Service (FSB).

Roman Anin, the editor in chief of @istories_media, has worked with ICIJ on several major investigations that have exposed global crime and corruption, including #PanamaPapers and #FinCENFiles.

ICIJ Director @RyleGerard says, “We are closely monitoring the arrest and treatment of our cherished member, and partner in investigative reporting, Roman Anin."

"On the face of it, this appears to be a dark day for freedom of the media in Russia. We stand fully behind Anin’s fearless exposure of figures from the criminal and political underworld," @RyleGerard said.
