A German citizen and co-founder of Trifit gyms in Russia was fined 300,000 rubles for three donations to FBK.
The Petrogradsky District Court in St. Petersburg found Igor Leonovich guilty of financing extremism. This was reported by the press service of the St. Petersburg courts. The prosecutor asked for five years in prison for him.
The reason for the case was three transfers of 300 rubles each to a fund recognized in Russia as "extremist".
The court was attended by two representatives of the German Embassy, who, according to Mediazona, were forbidden to record audio during the hearing.
Leonovich was arrested on August 17, 2026 in St. Petersburg.
