The believer was accused of involving a local resident (as it turned out later, an embedded informant) in the activities of an extremist organization. Six months later, the investigator of the Investigative Directorate of the Investigative Committee for the Krasnodar Territory, A. G. Andrianov, also opened a criminal case against his elder brother, Denis. Both brothers are charged with two articles: participation in the activities of an extremist organization and involvement in it.
