Resident of Astrakhan fined for emoji with the Ukrainian flag in the name of his Telegram channel

A court in Astrakhan arrested Yaroslav Savin, a member of the local branch of PARNAS, for five days and fined him 30,000 rubles. This is reported by OVD-Info with reference to his wife Marina Savina.

The day before, Savin was detained due to the fact that the name of his Telegram channel featured an image (emoji) of the Ukrainian flag. A protocol was drawn up against the activist to discredit the Russian army, and the court imposed a fine on him.

Savin was arrested for five days under an article on petty hooliganism associated with disobedience to the demands of police officers. The court decided that the man resisted at the moment of detention.

Earlier today it was reported that in Penza a criminal case was opened against a pensioner about "discrediting" the army for "classes" in Odnoklassniki.
