The party at Mutabor was organized by blogger Anastasia Ivleeva. The event was attended by many Russian pop stars — following the dress code, they were half naked.
The party received scandalous publicity. The head of the Safe Internet League, Ekaterina Mizulina, called her cynical — it is unethical to “hold such events at a time when our children are dying in the Northern Military District and many children are losing their fathers.”
State Duma Deputy Maria Butina, for her part, appealed to the Ministry of Internal Affairs , Roskomnadzor and the Ministry of Culture with a request to conduct an inspection and give a legal assessment of the party. In her opinion, the event should be assessed “for compliance with the law banning LGBT* propaganda and the presidential decree on strengthening traditional values.”
Earlier today, the Lefortovo Court of Moscow arrested rapper Vacío, a participant in this party, for 15 days and fined him 200 thousand rubles (Nikolai Vasiliev). As specified, the musician violated public order, used crude obscene language and distributed publications on Telegram channels aimed at promoting non-traditional sexual relationships.
* The movement is recognized as extremist and banned in Russia.
