A judge of the Isakogorsk District Court of the city of Arkhangelsk fined 59-year-old Mikhail Listov 1 thousand rubles for publishing a photograph of the 1945 Victory Parade.
The incident took place on January 19, 2018 in Arkhangelsk. Judge Elena Kostyleva fined Mikhail Listov, explaining her decision with Article 20.3 of the Administrative Code (propaganda or public display of Nazi paraphernalia or symbols), which prohibits the demonstration of Nazi and extremist symbols. The article implies punishment in the form of a fine of up to 2 thousand rubles and arrest for up to 15 days, according to the 29.ru edition.
The judge's decision also says that the publication of this photo "can cause suffering to people whose relatives died during the Great Patriotic War."
“I was born in the USSR and I hate Nazism in any form. Both of my grandfathers died in the Great Patriotic War,”the Arkhangelsk edition quotes Mikhail.
Mikhail refused to admit his guilt and sign the offense report, because he believes that there are serious mistakes in the case.
Senator Anton Belyakov posted information about this incident on his Facebook page, saying that he considers the judge's decision illegal: “To my deep regret, this is not the first time lately when social media users have been fined and even arrested for posting photographs of the times Great Patriotic War. And this "causes suffering" for many bloggers, journalists and their readers. This "causes suffering" to me personally, since I regularly post publications about the exploits of Soviet people during the Great Patriotic War with the hashtag # to be remembered. I believe that such jurisprudence should be put to an end. Therefore, I quite deliberately made the decision to publish the photo, for which the Arkhangelsk blogger was fined”.
According to him, people, seeing this photo, can again remember this day and at least for a moment feel the endless joy of the victory of our people in the terrible and bloody massacre unleashed by the Nazis.
“And no one will be able to convince me that it is not necessary to do this, because this is our Pride, our Memory, our Glory and our Victory. Because in this war, which claimed millions of lives, two of my grandfathers perished, and because I cherish their orders and medals, Belyakov summed up.
According to the senator of the Vladimir region, he intends to apply to the Higher Qualification Collegium of Judges so that they can give an objective assessment of the activities of Judge Kostyleva.
Note that earlier in Arkhangelsk, social activist Dmitry Sekushin and Severodvinsk Airborne Forces veteran Valentin Tabachny were tried under the same article.
Four comments were left on the website of judge-rossii.rf on Elena Kostyleva's page: three of them are positive, in the fourth user Vladimir criticized the judge, calling her "Another mediocrity in the judicial chair."
