In Maykop, employees of Center “E” forced a student to apologize for the meme “Father works in the FSB...”

In Maykop, employees of Center E forced student Artem Logunov to make a public apology for an ironic report about the coronavirus. This was reported in the telegram channel "Atypical Adygea".

The reason for the attention of the security forces was the message of the student in the chat "Atypical Adygea".

“My father works for the FSB. Today I was called to an urgent meeting. Came back late and didn't explain anything. He only told me to pack my things and run to the grocery store for two weeks. Now we are going somewhere far away from the city. I don’t know what is happening, but it seems to me that it has begun, ”the student wrote on April 4.

Employees held a preventive conversation with him, after which Logunov sent a video of apology to the same chat.

“I published a message taken from the Internet, the authenticity of which I was not convinced, which could provoke panic among the people in this chat and their loved ones, which I sincerely regret. I hope you don’t repeat my mistakes,” Logunov says in the video.

• Logunov's message is a paraphrase of a meme that appeared on the Internet back in 2014. Internet users rewrite it for current events that can cause people to panic.
