During the annual "Year in Review" press conference, Russian President Vladimir Putin, responding to a question about support for young families, noted the tradition of early marriages in the North Caucasus. He said he believed this was "right" and suggested "following their example," citing Ramzan Kadyrov's large family.
In Vladikavkaz, courts imposed fines of 10 thousand rubles on local residents Alina Torchinova and Vladimir Akoyev. They were found guilty under the administrative article on inciting hatred and enmity towards government officials.
It is known that Akoyev posted a comment on VKontakte: “Only one thing on their minds - to curry favor. They have become beasts, there is nothing human anymore. Life in their heads is worth nothing... I wish you all to die... Those who have rotted away in this lousy system.” Torchinova, in turn, posted a voice message on a Telegram channel: “You forgot one thing: the traffic police are the main participants in all this, they make money from it... Listen, you assholes, what are you doing there, what are you doing there? What are you getting paid for? I really am discriminating against you, you shameless ones! What are you doing there? ".
Earlier, Timur Totikov was fined in Mozdok, North Ossetia. He was found guilty of extremism because of a comment under the news about a fight between former Wagner PMC mercenaries and traffic police officers.
