The trial of the video about the seizure of relics from the ROAC has begun

On October 24, 2014, a trial began in Vladimir on the case of recognizing as extremist a video dedicated to the seizure of relics from the ROAC.

October 24, 2014 in the Oktyabrsky District Court of Vladimir Trial has begun on the case of recognizing as extremist the video "Additional piety". The court granted the petition of representatives of the prosecutor's office of Vladimir on the inclusion in the case as interested persons of the authors of the video of Mikhail Baranov and Anna Domrovskaya and adjourned the consideration of the case until November 21, 2014.

Recall that in this video, which tells about the seizure of Russian Orthodox Autonomous Church of the relics of St. Euphemia and Euphrosyne Suzdalsky in 2012, the prosecutor's office found negative assessments of the Russian Orthodox Church, Liberal Democratic Party, as well as statements of "hostile, aggressive nature."

We have not been able to find any extremist speeches. Negative assessments of the Liberal Democratic Party (which is not at all the subject of protection of anti-extremist legislation) and the ROC and " statements hostile, aggressive character a" is probably a rather harsh criticism of the representatives of the Russian Orthodox Church and representatives of the Liberal Democratic Party, who took the side of the Russian Orthodox Church in the conflict, is generally correct and does not contain inflammatory appeals. Except In addition, the attention of the prosecutor's office may have been attracted by a fragment of a song written in imitation of the Pussy Riot group, and footage from opposition rallies on Bolotnaya Square in Moscow.

In our opinion, the suit of the prosecutor's office of Vladimir is unjustified.
