ST. PETERSBURG, June 28 The prosecutor's office asks to prohibit the distribution of Morgenstern's video clip* (Alisher Tagirovich*) «New Wave» in Russia, a lawsuit with relevant demands has been sent to court, reports the head of the joint press service of the courts of St. Petersburg, Daria Lebedeva
“
"The Kolpinsky District Court registered an administrative claim from the prosecutor's office to declare the Morgenstern clip*, located at this link, prohibited for distribution on the territory of the Russian Federation (the link leads to the DJ Smesh clip and Morgenstern* “New Wave” on YouTube — ed.),” Lebedeva said.
She added that it follows from the lawsuit that the video shows disrespect for the rituals and rules of the church, scenes are shown of a sexual nature within the walls of the temple, thereby distorting the understanding of minors about the values of religion. “There are concerns that, looking at this creativity, teenagers will not have an adequate formation of a value system with such concepts as respect and tolerant attitude towards people, humanism, mercy,” Lebedeva added in her Telegram channel.
