Every month “Solidarity” volunteers secure media subscriptions for political prisoners. Among the newspapers and magazines are “Narodnaya Volya”, “Nasha Niva”, “Belgazeta”, “Komsolskaya Pravda”, “Pressball” and others according to the prisoners’ preferences. The newspapers are delivered to the cell that helps to stay informed about all events, be aware of developments and not to be detached from the life outside of prison, as the Volodarsky detention center prisoners writes. The convicts who have been transferred to the colonies receive mass media to their new addresses.
