In Magnitogorsk, the Pravoberezhny District Court on April 11 sentenced local resident Kristina Lebzak to 24 hours of community service. The activist was accused of violating the procedure for organizing a march against corruption on March 26 (Article 20.2 of the Code of Administrative Offenses). about it Writes Znak.com

“Judge Elena Nizhegorodova did not accept the arguments of the defense about violations in the preparation of the protocol, about the absence of any evidence of the organization of an unauthorized procession. The testimonies of witnesses from the side of the defense did not help either,” says human rights activist Dmitry Teplykh.

On March 26, about 300 people came to the "exhibition of military equipment" and arranged a spontaneous "walk with ducks" and posters against corruption. It was the videos from this walk that became the main evidence in court.
