Moscow pediatrician charged with spreading ‘fakes’ about Russian army after being accused by soldier’s widow of calling her deceased husband ‘a legitimate target for Ukraine’
Nadezhda Buyanova, a 67-year-old pediatrician at a clinic in Moscow, was charged with spreading “fakes” about the Russian army. A Moscow district court refused to grant the prosecution’s request to take her into custody, and instead restricted her from using the mail, phone, and Internet. She was also prohibited from communicating with witnesses in the case. Buyanova was charged after 34-year-old Anastasia Akinshina, a widow of a soldier who fought in Ukraine, filed a complaint.
