Russian deputy received 7 years in prison for “anti -war performance”

In Russia, the court sentenced the municipal deputy Alexei Gorinov to the 7 years of the colony in the case of discrediting the Russian army.

The Meshchansky District Court of Moscow sentenced the municipal deputy from the district of Krasnoselsky Alexei Gorinov to the 7 years of the colony after his statements against the “special operation” in Ukraine, Russian media reports.

The indictment in the case states that at a meeting of deputies on March 15, Alexei Gorinov announced the inadmissibility of entertaining leisure for Muscovites, since “hostilities are underway on the territory of the neighboring sovereign state.” He was supported by Elena Kotenochkin and deputy Ilya Yashin (passing in the case with a witness, at the moment arrested for resisting the requirements of police officers for 15 days). The recording of the meeting was published on the Internet, so the Investigative Committee of Russia saw in the actions of the deputies the “public distribution of knowingly false information”.
