Evidence Levels
Testimony:
accounts by former female and male participants, including the stories of Katya, Mona, Olesya/A. and materials about other appeals.
Suspicion and investigative versions:
stated as suspicions, police reports or media publications, not as guilt established by a court.
Conclusions:
appear only where several independent lines form a repeated pattern: dependency, complaints held inside, pressure on testimony, legal defense, money and political access.

Dossier Sections
How control works
The path inside, sacralization of the teacher, the leader's language and internal documents. Main materials: the path inside, the teacher as channel, public language, internal correspondence.
Human harm and testimony
Individual stories are best read in their own materials: Katya, Mona, Olesya/A.. The wider pattern is covered in the article on silenced testimonies.
Legal protection
The separate suspicions matter together with a repeated way of protecting the structure: lawsuits, public denial, discrediting and attempts to control testimony. Main nodes: Milwidsky, Gelman and Vinokur, Vinokur's profile.
Money, family, privileges
The financial architecture is better read separately from the testimony: nonprofits and reports, internal meal document, privileges at the top, access hierarchy, religious facade.
Political expansion
The political section shows how past harm becomes a question of public legitimacy, personnel and resources. Read the family-political circuit, the 50-million bill and the archive of recurring figures.
Sources
The external publications are accounted for separately: sources and materials. Each source there has a number, verification status and the main dossier article where it is used.
Claims not backed by documentary sources are presented as testimonies by former participants or as editorial conclusions drawn from the body of materials. The editors do not present unverified claims as facts established by a court.
