The defendant in the March 26 Case, Andrei Kosykh, sentenced to four years in a general regime colony, filed a complaint against the sentence. Interfax writes about this.
On August 9, Kosykh was found guilty of using violence against police officers (Parts 1 and 2 of Article 318 of the Criminal Code) at a rally on March 26 in Moscow. According to investigators, a young man, rising from an underground passage from the Tverskaya metro station, hit police officer Sinegubov in the head with his fist on his Jetta helmet. Kosykh also allegedly kicked police warrant officer Gavrilov “in the area of the neck and lower jaw on the right.”
