The lawsuit was filed against The Insider, editor-in-chief Roman Dobrokhotov and author Sofya Rusova.
The subject of the dispute was the material “Medvedev also came to fish”. How poaching and fishing for VIPs is organized in the Caucasian Reserve . As part of this investigation, The Insider spoke to the staff of the reserve, who told how poaching is organized in the reserve.
