The activity of members of the interregional grouping "National Revival Path of Russian Patriotism" and the neo-Nazi organization "Youth Organization Rus" was suppressed in Bryansk, Perm and Komsomolsk-on-Amur.
"Members of radical groups advocated the" expulsion from Russia "of migrants from the North Caucasus and Central Asian regions, the creation of a" white "state and the establishment of a" Nazi system "in Russia, and also planned the creation of an all-Russian radical political structure," the FSB said in a statement at the disposal of RT.
The detainees printed and distributed leaflets with extremist statements and painted graffiti calling for violence.
In addition, members of the groups planned high-profile actions to destabilize the socio-political situation in Russia, including preparing attacks on persons of non-Slavic appearance and on LGBT activists.
For this, a "fighting wing" of the organization was formed.
Nationalist Maxim Martsinkevich, known by the nickname Tesak, committed suicide in SIZO-3 in Chelyabinsk in September 2020.
Tesak received ten years in a maximum security penal colony in December 2018 for attacks on people he believed to be drug traffickers.
Investigators found no reason to believe that the death of the prisoner was of a criminal nature.
