 Psychiatric "Treatment" of Christians
A church sermon could easily fall into this category even though Article 52 of the same Constitution guarantees "freedom of religion." Many of these dissidents turned to study law for use in self-defense.
At first the communists (who claim to abide by their Constitution) tried to apply the law and many were sentenced with "Anti-Soviet Agitation and Propaganda".
In 1976 another dissident was expelled from the Soviet Union, Vladimir Bukovsky.

 Gulag - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It was not uncommon for the survivors of Nazi camps to be transported directly to the Soviet labour camps.
The term "corrective labor camp" was suggested for official use by the politburo of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union session of July 27, 1929, as a replacement of the term concentration camp, commonly used until that time.
The majority of Gulag camps were positioned in extremely remote areas of north-eastern Siberia (the best known clusters are Sevvostlag (The North-East Camps) along Kolyma river and Norillag near Norilsk) and in the south-eastern parts of the Soviet Union, mainly in the steppes of Kazakhstan (Luglag, Steplag, Peschanlag).

 "Sluggishly progressing schizophrenia was a fifth (as opposed to the four recognised in the West) category of schizophrenia diagnosed by psychiatrists in the Russian Soviet Federated Socialist Republic (RFSFR).
This diagnosis was often applied to dissidents who were not in fact mentally ill so that they could be forcibly hospitalized in mental institutions and subjected to different treatments including powerful anti-depressants and electroconvulsive therapy.
The existence of this diagnosis has led to questions on the part of supporters of anti-psychiatry about the existence of schizophrenia in general; whether it is diagnosed properly, and about political misuses of the schizophrenia diagnosis in the West."

 TeamGOP Blog: The "Gulag" of Gitmo
Camps for "wifes of traitors of Motherland" (there was a special category of repressed: "Traitor of Motherland Family Member" (ЧСИР, член семьи изменника Родины)).
Even more absurd is the shear numbers between the military prison in Gitmo, 540, and the hundreds of thousands of innocent dissidents that suffered torture and death in the Gulag.
Under the supervision of Lavrenty Beria who headed both NKVD and the Soviet Atom bomb program until his demise in 1953, thousands of zeks were used to mine uranium ore and prepare test facilities on Novaya Zemlya, Vaygach Island, Semipalatinsk, among other sites.
