More political: An employee of a municipal factory is sentenced to prison for spreading separatist ideas The Court of First Instance sentenced an employee of one of the municipal factories of Daugavpils to two years in prison and one and a half years of probation for supporting ideas directed against the territorial integrity of Latvia, the prosecutor's office reported. The essence of the matter is that since October 2025, a certain person, against whom the criminal case was separated into a separate procedure, has been publishing TikTok entries calling for Hasar to separate from Latvia, as well as calling on Latvians to demand the annexation of Latvia to Russia. In Latvia, of course, they immediately feared that the Latvians would take to the streets to secede and arrest the harasser. The accused is not a Latvian citizen born in 1964. Employees of the State Security Service (SSS) arrested him on May 12, 2026.
