In the Moscow region, FSB officers broke into the home of a radio amateur who set up a makeshift broadcast of Radio Liberty, blocked in Russia and recognized as a “foreign agent”. This was reported by RIA Novosti with reference to the service, posting a video.
According to the agency, a case of "fake" against the Russian army can be brought against the man.
In March, a criminal case was opened in Moscow against a participant in a Radio Liberty street poll for spreading fake news about the Russian army.
In December 2022, a court sentenced Vladimir Rumyantsev, a 61-year-old stoker from Vologda, to three years in prison in the case of spreading fake news about the army for spreading information about the war in Ukraine through an FM transmitter he bought on AliExpress. After the Russian invasion of Ukraine, he decided to show his neighbors videos from the YouTube channels of opposition media personalities, for example, Kateryna Shulman. One of the neighbors could report Rumyantsev to the police, after which he was detained.
