The Tagansky court of Moscow extended until January 7 the arrest of the actor-activist Peter Pavlensky, the correspondent of the "faces" from the courtroom reports. The artist is accused of vandalism for the "threat" campaign.
The inquiry officer motivated the need to extend the arrest by the fact that Pavlensky was prescribed a psychiatric examination and he will be placed in a hospital. In addition, according to the investigation, the artist repeatedly violated the preventive measure previously chosen in another criminal case in the form of a non -departure subscription.
The lawyer of Pavlensky Olga Chavdar asked not to extend the arrest, but to let him go on a recognizance not to leave. "The state is trying to equate Pavlensky with the inhabitant with base behavior, which is unacceptable if the court is understanding the corporatism," she said.
At the beginning of the meeting, Pavlensky himself again demanded to change the qualifications of the crime imputed to him for the article "Terrorism", after which he was silent.
On the night of November 9, the artist Peter Pavlensky doused the front door of the entrance No. 1 of the Russian FSB building with gas and set it on fire. "The burning door of the Lubyanka is a glove that society throws into the face of a terrorist threat ... But terrorism can exist only due to the animal instinct of fear. To go against this human instinct forces an unconditional protective reflex," the statement of Pavlensky said. He called his action "threat."
The corporateist was immediately detained. During interrogation, he refused to testify. The closed door was soon closed with metal sheets.
On November 10, the judge of the Tagansky District Court of Moscow Marina Orlova satisfied the request for the arrest of Pavlensky for 30 days ( 
Pavlensky demanded to judge him under the article "terrorism" as a sign of solidarity with the Crimean prisoners and defendantsin the ABTO case . Until the case is retrained, the artist announced a vow of silence.
On Thursday, the Moscow City Court rejected the complaint about the arrest of Pavlensky . The court introduced the certificate to the case that Pavlensky missed only one court hearing in St. Petersburg, and the court was notified in advance of this. “The artist Pavlensky never hid from the investigation and the court, the evidence that the charges have been submitted - are not justified and do not confirm that Pavlensky could hide,” said Chavdar lawyer. According to her, the location of Pavlensky in custody breaks the court hearings in St. Petersburg in the other case of the artist.
The lawyer also said that the artist is going to impose article 243 of the Criminal Code (damage or destruction of history and cultural monuments). The maximum sanction on it is six years deprived of freedom.
