Dennis Igor Bespalov

According to OVD-Info

According to the investigation, on January 19, 2022, the individuals involved filmed a model clad in underwear and a fur coat with the Moscow Cathedral Mosque as the backdrop, thus insulting the religious sentiments of believers by displaying blatant disrespect towards the mosque, an object of religious veneration. Subsequently, they disseminated information about these actions on the Internet to increase their public profile. "Bespalov D.I., following the devised criminal plan, assumed the role of directly recording the video, posing as a casual passerby, capturing the actions of Katanova M.P. and a female participant acting as a model during the photography session against the backdrop of the mosque. He was responsible for providing the obtained provocative video materials to Volkova K.A., who, in turn, would pass them on to Maslennikov R.M. to ensure their widespread distribution on the Internet." In January 2022, a criminal case was initiated under Part 1 of Article 148 of the Criminal Code, pertaining to the offence of insulting the religious sentiments of believers. On May 25, 2022, a justice of the peace from the judicial district No. 410 in the Meshchansky district of Moscow terminated the criminal case and prosecution, citing the reconciliation of the parties.
