Evening Medusa

August 3rd. The main news of the day (well, such a day, what to do) - Petrosyan gets divorced

Good news (about Russian justice). The Supreme Court requested materials on the arrest of 18-year-old defendant in the New Greatness case, Anna Pavlikova. Her lawyers hope that now the case will be transferred to the board of the Armed Forces - this gives a chance that the girl will be released from custody .

Bad news (about Russian justice). In Barnaul, this is the third criminal case over the past few weeks for pictures on VKontakte . This time, law enforcement agencies did not like the meme based on the famous photo of Patriarch Kirill with a retouched watch. They decided that the picture discredited the Russian Orthodox Church and accused the 38-year-old man of extremism.

The Incredible Adventures of an American. In Chukotka, border guards detained a man who sailed from Alaska in a rubber boat. appeared Information that he had a mental disorder and that he wanted to seek political asylum in Russia (it was emphasized that these were two unrelated facts), but then everything turned out to be even more interesting : two weeks ago he went on a boat trip along the Yukon River, but because due to worsening weather, he ended up in the open sea without means of navigation, from where he was carried to the shores of Chukotka.

Incredible adventures of an official. Vitaly Mutko managed to be the deputy mayor of St. Petersburg, a senator in the Federation Council, the head of the RFU, the president of Zenit, the minister of sports, the deputy chairman of the government, the curator of the 2018 World Cup and the main person involved in the doping scandal. But now he faces a new difficult task - he will head the government commission on the Cossacks .

Funny about deputies. For a month and a half, deputies from United Russia have been trying to convince voters that raising the retirement age is good. We have collected the brightest quotes and arguments in a two-minute video.

Serious about Petrosyan. Elena Stepanenko and Yevgeny Petrosyan divorce after 33 years of marriage and begin to divide property in court . The most interesting thing in the upcoming process is the lawyers: Yegor Creed, Ptakha and Timati used to be the clients of Petrosyan's defender, and Igor Sechin, Vladimir Putin and Patriarch Kirill were the clients of Stepanenko's lawyer. Meanwhile, social media users are very worried .

Have a good weekend. Grisha Levchenko and Sasha Polivanov
