The Ural PR man was sent to the pre -trial detention center in the case of justification of terrorism due to the death of Vladlen Tatar

The Verkh-Isetsky District Court of Yekaterinburg arrested the PRArchik Yaroslav Shirshikov in the case of justification of terrorism (part 2 of Article 205.2 of the Criminal Code) due to the post of Death by Vladlen Tatar. This was announced by the reader of Mediazons from the court building.

He said that no one was allowed into the courtroom except the lawyer and the prosecutor. Shirshikov himself was brought into the building through the main entrance with a hood stretched over his head. The mother of the PR man told reporters that she was ready to provide her son housing if he was elected house arrest.

According to the lawyer Fedor Akcherayshev, the case against Shirshikov was opened because of the post in the telegram channel "Hussar bravado", published a few hours after the news of the death of the wire-nosed blogger. The PR man wrote that he was “against [that] that in the cities something explodes and would have died,” but at the same time he wished the “glass-willed” Tatar land.

The detention of Shirshikov became known on April 18. Then the associates of the TV presenter Vladimir Solovyov in the Ural Live telegram channel posted a video from the searches at the PR man at the house, on the recording he sat in one robe. Earlier, the same channel published complaints of pro -government activists about Shirshikov’s posts about the deaths of Tatar and Daria Dugina.

In 2019, the PR man protested against the demolition of the square near the drama theater in Yekaterinburg and held a prayer with the Pastafarians there. Later, he was appointed in a colony-settlement due to a post about protests in the square and video message, in which he called Putin's envoy in the Urals Federal District of Nikolai Tsukanov “Polish spy”. In the summer of 2022, Shirshikov was fined due to posts about the war.

Shirsshikov was the first to report the loss of the correspondent of the Moscow Bureau of Wall Street Journal Evan Gershkovich, who came to Yekaterinburg. As it turned out later, the journalist started a case of espionage (Article 276 of the Criminal Code).
