The police drew up protocols against the former mayor of the city, Yevgeny Roizman, for «discrediting» the Russian army. This was reported by E1.ru.
The reason for the two protocols under the new article 20.3.3 of the Code of Administrative Offenses was Roizman's tweet and his statement in the video. Immediately after the preparation of the documents, the Oktyabrsky District Court of Yekaterinbrug began to consider the administrative cases of the politician.
“It is not at all clear how to defend oneself. I can’t go back on my words, I don’t want to and I won’t,” the politician said.
In addition, a third report was drawn up against Roizman according to in the same article for the post in the telegram channel. The meeting is scheduled for April 7.
President Vladimir Putin signed a law punishing the «discrimination» of the Russian army in early March. In the event of a repeated administrative violation within a year, a citizen faces a criminal case under the new article 280.3 of the Criminal Code (public actions aimed at discrediting the use of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation).
