In Kazakhstan, a Rostov anarchist was detained, who was put on the wanted list because of a comment about an explosion in the Arkhangelsk FSB

Anarchist Denis Kozak, accused of justifying terrorism, was detained in Kazakhstan. He announced this on his Telegram channel.

As he told his relatives, he was being taken to the Criminal Police Department in Almaty. According to preliminary information, the detention took place at the request of Russia. Kozak was previously put on the wanted list.

In June 2022, it became known that a case was opened against the anarchist for publicly justifying terrorism on the Internet (Part 2 of Article 205.2 of the Criminal Code). The reason for the criminal prosecution was a comment about Mikhail Zhlobitsky's self-explosion in the building of the regional department of the Arkhangelsk FSB in 2018.

In the text, Kozak gave his assessment of the act of Zhlobitsky, with whom he corresponded on VKontakte. As the anarchist himself later explained, the commentary did not explicitly endorse Zhlobitsky's act, only an analysis of the reasons that prompted him to undermine himself.

As a measure of restraint in the case, Kozak was ordered not to leave. A few months later he left Russia.
