Mathematician Bogatov was allowed to take daily walks from home

Since August 4, the investigating authorities have allowed mathematician Dmitry Bogatov, who is accused of terrorism, to go for daily two-hour walks. It is reported by Interfax.

On July 24, the Presnensky District Court of Moscow released Bogatov under house arrest. The mathematician is still forbidden to use any means of communication and is only allowed to meet with his lawyers.

Bogatov is accused of inciting mass riots because of calls to go to Red Square on April 2, 2017, which were posted by someone under the pseudonym "Ayrat Bashirov" on the SysAdmins.ru forum. The calls were sent from Bogatov's IP, but Bogatov is the exit node operator of the Tor network, which means that any user could write from his IP.

After Bogatov was charged with inciting mass riots in April, the court, contrary to the requirements of the investigation, did not take him into custody. Then two more articles were added to him - about calls to carry out terrorist activities or justify terrorism using the Internet and about preparing to organize mass riots, after which he was sent to a pre-trial detention center.
