Details and sources
Full summary
A resident of Odintsovo near Moscow. A case was brought against her for spreading deliberately false information about the Armed Forces in connection with an article about Russian army crimes in Bucha. The court allegedly decided to send Trifonovuk to compulsory treatment, but Trifonova herself told OVD-Info that this was the court's intention, but she herself did not attend the court hearings due to illness and does not know exactly whether such a decision was made. On 25 March 2023, the appeal court overturned the order for compulsory treatment, but Trifonova told OVD-Info that even this time she did not know about the court decision. On 20 April, Trifonova was detained and taken to court, where the decision on forced hospitalisation was again issued. From the court she was released home.
