In Moscow, a nurse and civil activist, Olga Menshikh, was detained on charges of spreading “fake news” about the Russian army (Article 207.3, Part 1 of the Russian Criminal Code). Her lawyer, Oskar Cherdzhiev, reported this in his stories on Telegram. Menshikh’s acquaintances confirmed this information to OVD-Info.
During the day, officers from the capital’s Investigative Committee conducted a search at Menshikh’s apartment. According to her acquaintances, the authorities “turned everything upside down,” kept the woman in handcuffs, and did not allow her to drink water. They also refused to let Menshikh’s English tutor leave the premises. Law enforcement confiscated all electronic devices, after which Menshikh was taken for questioning to the Dorogomilovsky Interdistrict Investigation Department of the Investigative Committee.
