Virtually all of the independent media in Russia has closed down.
Many journalists have already left the country.
She would have joined more than 200 million girls and women in India today who were married before they turned 18.
Except, Munna rebelled.
And she resorted to an unusual method to fight the threat of an illegal child marriage.
Sport is out of reach for many girls in India because they are poor and drop out of school when their families force them into child marriage.
This is Munna's village football team and I want to find out how many of the girls here were forced into early marriage and I'll ask them to step up.
Munna, all the girls who had to get married, step one step ahead.
That's 9 out of 12.
Just Munna, her sister and one other player were able to resist the pressure to marry early.
So it's incredible that all of these girls are here on the field and have been able to fight for that right.
Now even child brides are able to train in football, opening the possibility of some independence and a different life.
Munna is 19 years old now.
It's a path which promises financial independence and a freedom to take decisions about her life.
