The case of Sasha Skochilenko is a vivid example of the absurdity of modern Russia. She is facing up to 10 years in prison for spreading information about Russia’s army actions in #Ukraine. What happened and how can you help? A thread 🧵#FreeSashaSkochilenko

The police dispersed a presentation of comics by artist Sasha Skochilenko, who has been in pre-trial detention for almost a year on the case of "fakes" about the Russian army. Half an hour after it started, police officers in masks arrived and demanded the audience leave the room. The police put two attendees face down on the floor.

Skochilenko was arrested in April 2022 on a case of "war fakes" - the artist replaced price tags with anti-war leaflets in a grocery store. A 72-year-old customer in the store snitched on the girl to the police. Skochilenko faces up to 10 years in prison.

And today is the day of another hearing in Sasha's case in Vasileostrovsky district court.

[Free Sasha Skochilenko @Freedomforsasha]

Yesterday, the presentation of Sasha's comic books on mental health was disrupted by the police. Sasha's best friend Lesha and at least two of the visitors were beaten by the police, and the police also used threats and harassment. Everyone was let go after questioning.

Lesha was also issued a fine of 2500 rubles for illegally selling books in the public space where the presentation occurred.

Happy #IWD23 all!

Thinking today of all the brave women who lead by example and stand up to authoritarian rulers. The price they pay for opposing tyranny is extremely high.

Russian artist Alexandra Skochilenko is currently on trial, accused of spreading “fake news” about the Russian army.

In March, she replaced price tags at a local supermarket with statements about the Ukraine war.

Here’s what the Russian authorities consider “fake news”:
