Description
With parliamentary elections in Russia around the corner, canvassers for Kremlin critic, Andrei Pivovarov, in the southern city of Krasnodar are asking passersby to write letters to their candidate, who has no way to meet them. That's because Mr Pivovarov is being held behind bars just steps down the road. Arrested at the end of May, Pivovarov's supporters say he was caught up in a dragnet that has seen Russia's opposition dismantled ahead of State Duma elections this weekend. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
