Case summary
Resident of Biysk (Altai Krai). Supposedly, in December 2023, he was detained in the case of transferring money to the Russian Freedom Legion. In the same month he was included in the list of extremists and terrorists of Rosfinmonitoring. In January 2024, local blogs circulated a video of law enforcers invading Yakovlev's flat: they put him face down on the floor and then threatened to "restore his memory". The young man was taken into custody. A case of high treason was opened against him, as well as two episodes of terrorism financing and one episode of attempted financing. On 20 September 2024, Yakovlev was sentenced to 15 years in a strict regime colony.
