The Court of Cassation found Vissarion's followers guilty of obstructing Ren-TV journalists
On June 24, 2023, the Eighth Court of Cassation in Kemerovo overturned the acquittal against a member of the Church of the Last Testament, Vasily Belko, handed down by the Kuraginsky District Court in 2022 in a case of obstruction of journalistic activities. The conviction of another person involved in this case, Anton Anyanov, was upheld by the cassation court. Recall that both followers of Vissarion in 2021 were sentenced to two years of probation each under Art.
