Biography

A resident of Crimea. On 5 August 2024, a search was conducted at her home. Bratseva was prosecuted for organising activities of an extremist organisation because of her involvement in the Jehovah's Witnesses community. Representatives of this community are prosecuted under extremist articles solely for religious activities - holding meetings and joint worship services, attracting new supporters.

On 17 October 2025, the court sentenced her to six years and three months of suspended imprisonment.
