Resident of Rostov-on-Don accused of calling for terrorism

The criminal case against Bogdan Zayats, a resident of Rostov-on-Don, accused of calls for terrorism and extremist activities, has been brought to court. He faces up to seven years in prison.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that on March 28, 2023, it became known that a district court in Rostov-on-Don had fined Bogdan Zayats by 10,000 roubles, treating his comment in a polemic with another user of the "VKontakte" social network as extremist. Judicial experts came to the conclusion that the comment "contains linguistic signs of humiliation (insult) of a group of people – state officials of the Russian Federation."

According to investigators, the 34-year-old Bogdan Zayats, a native of the Ukrainian city of Zhitomir, had posted comments in the above social network with "calls for a violent change of power in the Russian Federation."
