This was stated by his lawyer Vladislav Idamzhapov.

"Police officers did not understand the situation and allow illegal and unjustified persecution, since they believe that Roizman once reposted an extremist recording on VKontakte, but he was not a user of this network, someone else may have committed an offense and posted this record," RIA Novosti quoted him as saying.

Idamzhapov said that Roizman would be taken to the police department to draw up a protocol on an administrative offense.

Earlier, the investigation of the criminal case against Roizman on discrediting the Russian Armed Forces was completed.
