Vyacheslav Koshelev

Resident of the city of Volzhsky (Volgograd Region). Previously prosecuted for theft, the court dismissed the case due to reconciliation of the parties. He was detained on 17 April 2022 during a competition in high-speed climbing to the floors of high-rise buildings. According to Koshelev, the law enforcers' attention was attracted by his clothes - he came wearing a cap with the Ukrainian flag and a sweatshirt with the inscription "30 years of independence of Ukraine". He was charged with petty hooliganism: the police said that he shouted "obscene slogans" and thus interfered with the competitions. On 19 April, it became known that a criminal case was opened against Koshelev due to the fact that, according to the investigation, during detention he "deliberately kicked one blow on the shin of the right leg of policeman Vlasov, causing him physical pain". On 5 August 2022, the court ordered for him to undergo an involuntary psychiatric treatment.
