According to TASS, about ten people were detained, including journalist Ilya Azar.

Earlier it became known that the prosecution asked to sentence six years to a colony of general regime Prokopieva, who is accused of justifying terrorism.

In November 2018, a program was broadcast on Echo of Moscow in Pskov, in which Prokopieva talked about the possible causes of the terrorist attack in the FSB building in Arkhangelsk.

The text of the program was posted in the form of an article in the publication “Pskov News Feed”.

Later, the broadcast and article were removed at the request of Roskomnadzor, and the regional department of the IC of Russia initiated a case of publicly acquitting terrorism using the media (part 2 of article 205.2 of the Criminal Code of Russia).
