In Kirov, they will begin to consider in absentia a criminal case on “fake stories about the army” against the composer who wrote the anthem of the city
Criminal case against composer and conductor Prokhor Protasov excited due to reposts on VKontakte of Meduza and Present Tense articles and a video by Maxim Katz. Protasov is charged with paragraph “d” part 2 of Art. 207.3 of the Criminal Code: according to it, the musician faces a fine of up to 5 million rubles or imprisonment for up to 10 years.
