Residents of the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic fined for calls to protest against the involvement of conscripts in the "SVO"
The Nalchik City Court fined Margarita Getazheeva and Timbor Takov 10 thousand rubles. In messengers, they called on the parents of conscripts to come to the rally near the building of the republic's government.
 
Both residents of Nalchik had the same outgoing messages in WhatsApp, and in different groups. The parents of conscripts were called to come to the building of the Kabardino-Balkarian government on August 13. At that time, the Russian army was fighting with the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Kursk region. According to various sources, among others, Russian conscripts were involved in them.
 
Recall that in October 2022, human rights activists in Kabardino-Balkaria appealed to local authorities with a demand not to prosecute women detained during a protest against conscription for war.
