“Together with a neighbor, we were looking for such a position of the room TV antenna, in which it would be possible to watch TV.

And they found - 20 channels appeared.

But for this, the antenna had to be glued to the wall with ribbons from the sausage packaging, ”said Safronov, a member of the commission. 

However, in accordance with the internal regulations of the pre-trial detention center, inmates are prohibited from sticking anything to the walls of their cells.

The representative of the prison administration explained to the POC that Safronov and his neighbor had been warned about the inadmissibility of this violation of the rules and now they will face disciplinary action.

In what exactly the penalty is expressed, the representative of the pre-trial detention center did not specify. 

At the same time, according to the interlocutor of RT, the Lefortovo management does not deny that indoor antennas are not capable of receiving a TV signal in all cameras, and promised to install a collective antenna during the ongoing overhaul.  

The POC added that Safronov had previously complained about the seizure of his correspondence with relatives for censorship, which is in no way limited in time by law.  

Former correspondent of Kommersant and Vedomosti, adviser to the general director of the state corporation Roscosmos Safronov was detained in July 2020 in the case of treason.
