The Lefortovo District Court of Moscow arrested M. I. Rylov, accused of treason (Article 275 of the Criminal Code). Mediazona found this information in the database of Moscow courts.
In addition, today the Lefortovo Court granted two search requests under the article on treason, and also allowed to receive the billing of the person involved in the case under this article. No details of Rylov's accusation are known.
As Mediazona noted, on October 23, the Dorogomilovsky District Court of Moscow imposed an administrative penalty on M.I. Rylov under the article on petty hooliganism (part 1 of article 20.1 of the Administrative Code). This article implies a fine or arrest for up to 15 days.
Those involved in cases under the article on treason often first fall under administrative prosecution. As a rule, protocols are drawn up against them under Article 20.1 of the Administrative Code — it allows a person to be arrested, and when the administrative arrest expires, he is sent to a pre-trial detention center. Security forces arrested in this way, for example, Gleb Verdiyan, Vyacheslav Lutor and Nikolai Suslov accused of treason.
