A resident of Moscow, SMM manager. A robbery case was opened against her and two acquaintances in connection with a conflict with a stranger over anti-war leaflets. Manyukhina was taken into custody. The victim, Yuri Korovin, petitioned for the case to be dropped, and the expertise recognised that his health had not been harmed. Manyukhina, along with the other defendants, also paid the man compensation for moral and material damage in the amount of 300,000 rubles. However, on 2 March 2023, a court sentenced her to two years and five months in prison, later substituting this punishment with forced labour. On 2 July, Manyukhina was released from custody on her own recognisance. On 30 October 2023, the appeal court overturned the verdict and returned the case to the prosecutor for reclassification to a more severe article on theft of weapons by a group of persons with the use of violence (paragraphs "a", "g" of part 3 of article 226 of the Criminal Code).
