Trial of the extremist group "Schultz-88"

On November 24, 2004, at a regular hearing in the Leninsky Federal Court of St. Petersburg in the case of the extremist group "Schultz-88", the term of detention of the leader of the group, Dmitry Bobrov, was extended. The court left him in custody until February 24 next year. The psychiatric examination recognized D. Bobrov as sane.

On December 3, 2004, the court appointed a new psychiatric examination, and on December 10, the accused petitioned the court for an additional socio-psychological examination of the group's activities. This was done in connection with the desire of the defendant to "ask questions to the expert" who conducted it (we recall that Nikolai Girenko, who was killed in June 2004, acted as an expert in this case).

Court sessions are from time to time accompanied by unauthorized rallies and pickets held by skinheads.
