In Moscow, the Preobrazhensky Court sentenced Lyubov Sobol to one year and six months of restriction of freedom.It is interesting that during the announcement of the verdict, the former lawyer of the FBK (an extremist organization banned in Russia, recognized as a foreign agent) was removed from the courtroom. She filmed what was happening on her phone without permission.
During the debate, the representative of the prosecutor’s office asked the court to appoint Sobol two years of restriction of freedom. He asked to forbid her to leave the house from 22.00 to 06.00, as well as to attend or participate in mass and other events. In addition, she was asked to be banned from traveling outside the municipality where she lives.
Earlier, the court found Sobol guilty of incitement to violation of sanitary standards due to an unauthorized rally in the capital.
The investigation believes that she and other defendants called on citizens to go to an uncoordinated rally on January 23, because of which people, including patients with coronavirus, came to the event, and thus the threat of mass illness was created.
