Resident of Sverdlovsk Region Sentenced to Eight Months of Forced Labor for Comments on Victory Day The regional court in Sverdlovsk sentenced Polevskyi resident Alexander Vinogradov to eight months of forced labor in the case of "restoring Nazism", My City reports. His salary will be deducted 10% as state income. In addition, the man was banned from publicly posting materials on the Internet for two and a half years. The reason for the criminal case was the comments Vinogradov left on May 9, 2025 on VKontakte as part of publications about Victory Day, laying flowers at the Shirokurchensky monument and the action of the Immortal Regiment. As Vechernier and Domusti discovered, the man published photographs of leaflets that Nazi Germany distributed throughout the Soviet Union in 1941-1942, as well as notes in which he compared the events of 1941 and 2022. He published publications under pseudonyms in the "Channel 4" and "Podslushano Polevskaya" communities. The investigation saw in these publications a justification for the crimes of Nazi Germany and a lack of respect for the unforgettable dates of Russia. Vinogradov was charged with three counts according to the article on "restoring Nazism". The man confessed fully, so the case was considered in a special way - without examining the evidence in court.
