Case summary
Resident of Borisoglebsk (Voronezh region). Together with activists of the "Borisoglebsk Anti-Corruption Committee" wrote complaints against Dmitry Shiryaev, a deputy of the Regional Duma. In their opinion, the unanimous activist did not fulfil his duties to his constituents. The activists also demanded to check the deputy's oil factory, which, according to them, discharges waste into the Khoper River.
In 2024, a case was brought against him because of leaflets slandering Shiryaev.
On 21 October 2025, the court sentenced him to a fine of 200 thousand rubles. On 26 February 2026, the court of appeal reduced the amount by 10 thousand rubles.
Others charged under Article 128.1 part 2, Russian Criminal Code
