The Khabarovsk blogger and LGBT activist Andrei Marchenko was a final charge. He reported this on his Facebook page. "Let's swim!" - remarked Marchenko. Meanwhile, under Part 1 of Article 280 of the Criminal Code (public calls for extremism), he faces up to four years in the colony.
On June 8, in Trinity, Marchenko published on Facebook a post dedicated to events in the east of Ukraine. “All terrorists on the stake !!!!!!!!” he wrote . “To kill everyone !! Bloody Sunday! In the Trinity to free Ukraine from fascist -terrorists!”
The post was made visible only for Marchenko's Frandes on the social network. Nevertheless, it was for this publication that the blogger was brought to justice.
On August 28, the FSB officers conducted a search from Marchenko , during which they seized all office equipment and mobile phones. The next day, in the regional headquarters of the special services, the blogger was charged under the 280th article.
A week before the search blogger was also called to the regional UFSB. There he was demonstrated by the scans of a certain site, according to which Marchenko and another Khabarovsk LGBT activist, Alexander Ermoshkin, the creators and inspirers of the Gay-Terrorism Underground, aiming to organize the Orange Revolution in Khabarovsk. As Marchenko noted, the investigator was "extremely serious." Then he was asked why he did not like Novorossia, explaining that his many posts in support of Ukraine and criticizing the Kremlin became the reason for the attention of the FSB.
On September 11, an examination was scheduled for five more phrases from Marchenko’s summer posts. “Including phrases with Poroshenko’s support and phrases about the fact that the prices are higher, but our Crimea,” the blogger wrote.
On September 29, it became known that Rosfinmonitoring included Marchenko in the list of terrorists and extremists . At the same time, the blogger used bank accounts exclusively for the withdrawal from the WebMoney system of his money earned on official freivalry exchanges. These earnings have been the only source of his income for many years. Thus, the solution of Rosfinmonitoring left the activist completely without money. “Now I don’t even have funds for elementary products,” Marchenko wrote.
At the same time, the blogger expressed bewilderment with inclusion in the list, noting that the court had not yet recognized him either a terrorist or an extremist.
