Teacher Natalya Taranushenko was convicted in absentia to seven years due to a statement about the war in Ukraine at a class hour

The teacher of the Russian language and literature from the Moscow Region Protvino Natalya Taranushenko was found guilty of the distribution of "fakes" about the Russian army using their official position and by the motive of hatred. It is reported by the OVD-Info.

In addition to the correspondence period of seven years, the court forbade her to engage in pedagogical activities for three years.

The reason for the persecution was the class hour, which the teacher spent for the eighth grade in April 2022. Taranushenko told teenagers about the massacre in Buch and compared the Russian authorities with the Nazi regime in Germany of the 1930s.

The woman was excited only two years later - by the denunciation of the father of two students. After that, she left the Russian Federation.
