Woman from Krasnodar fined for post in social network

The court has imposed a fine of 30,000 roubles on Sofia Burger, a resident of Krasnodar, treating her post placed in a social network as discrediting Russian militaries.

The Leninsky District Court of Krasnodar has concluded that Sofia had posted in her social network page "a video showing a man against the backdrop of the Kremlin, spitting in the direction of the Kremlin at the time of the explosion," the "Kavkaz.Realii"* project reports.

The court has considered that Ms Burger "had publicly called for obstruction of the use of the Russia's Armed Forces in order to protect the interests of Russia, its citizens, and to maintain the international peace and security."
