Judge of the Central Court of Komsomolsk-on-Amur Konstantin Kurnoy on January 18 ordered a second art examination in the case of the artist Yulia Tsvetkova from the Center for Sociocultural Expertise. This was announced by the mother of Tsvetkova Anna Khodyreva.
The Center has been involved in political criminal cases for more than ten years. Experts conducted research on the cases of Pussy Riot, Vladislav Sinitsa, historian Yuri Dmitriev, Jehovah's Witnesses (in 2017 the organization was recognized as extremist) and . “Thus, there is no doubt about the future conclusions of the new examination,” Khodyreva noted.
Pornography or death. The experts, whose conclusion formed the basis of Sinitsa's verdict, have been participating in political criminal cases for 10 years
Tsvetkova is accused of distributing pornography because of the public «Vagina Monologues» with drawings of vulvas. An examination was already carried out in this case, but later it turned out that one of its authors, art historian Tatyana Troitskaya, had an outstanding conviction. Troitskaya considered the content of the public to be pornographic.
