He brandished a knife and justified terrorism: a 22-year-old boy will appear in court in Kirov.

      On February 23 of this year, a 22-year-old drunk Kirov resident was near one of Kirov's entertainment venues. He approached the strangers and began brandishing the knife he had with him. One of the women made a remark to him, after which the guy swung his fist at her and tried to hit her. Then the young man showed the citizens a tattoo, which is the symbol of a terrorist organization banned in the territory of the Russian Federation. At the same time, the attacker shouted phrases containing signs of public justification and propaganda of terrorism.

      The Kirov resident was accused of committing crimes under Part 2 of Article 213 of the Criminal Code (hooliganism), as well as Part 1 of Article 205.2 of the Criminal Code (public justification and propaganda of terrorism). The first department for the investigation of particularly important cases of the SU IC of Russia in the Kirov region has completed the investigation of the criminal case. Operational support was provided by employees of the regional Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Federal Security Service of Russia.

      A preventive measure in the form of detention was chosen in relation to the accused. It continues to operate at the present time. The investigators have collected exhaustive evidence incriminating the defendant in the commission of the alleged acts. In this regard, the criminal case was sent to the court for consideration on the merits.
