Hello Michael,

First of all, looks like the problem really is in the Tor exit-node:

Is was last seen online right before the arrest and apartment search.

I'm not sure debian-private is the right place to discuss this, but
according to other sources (public and not) the case _is_ political. (At
least the beginning of the situation is anti-corruption protests, what
is politic as is.) Right now "the regime" looks for someone to convict
after last month's protests and Dmitry is the scapegoat for them.
