Elena Musikhina and her husband, Mikhail Musikhin, who have lived in Gatineau since December 2015, say they face grave danger if they are forced to return to Russia. A random bullet, a pedestrian shoved onto the road in the path of an oncoming car. It happens all the time, Musikhina says.

Elana Musikhina is a scientist seeking asylum in Canada. She has collected evidence of environmental disaster in Siberia and says she has secret documents related to military and ecological data in Russia. She’s also been a vocal critic of the Putin government. In June 2016, the couple’s application for refugee protection was turned down, with a tribunal concluding they didn’t qualify as refugees.

There are few avenues left to pursue.

“At this point, she’s desperate,” said Musikhina’s daughter, Olesia Sunatori, acting as her interpreter.
