Propagandists claim that he "admitted guilt and repented" and that "he tried to leave for Ukraine to participate in military operations as part of the Ukrainian national battalions."

A man, who was born in 2001, was sentenced to 3 years in a general regime penal colony.

The verdict came into force.

The Mass Media writes that we are talking about a 21-year-old employee of "Yandex.Eda" (Yandex.Food) Maxim from Tyumen, Russia.

In February 2022, he went on a picket with a placard "instead of Phantom Nazis (National Sozialist), innocent people are dying in Ukraine!", and soon left for the Belgorod Oblast, Russia without warning his family. At the end of April, the young man was arrested.
