A journalist and a player «What? Where? When?”Rovshan Askerov told RBC that in his post, because of which the Investigative Committee opened a criminal case against him, there was no slander or rehabilitation of Nazism.
“In all my words (meaning a Facebook post (owned by Meta, which is recognized as extremist in Russia and banned). —RBC) there is no slander, no deliberate lies. At least in Wikipedia, everything is checked, and there are no lies, slander, and even more so the rehabilitation of Nazism. They have a sick fantasy,” Askerov said.
According to the journalist, he is not in Russia, «and for a long time », and is not going to return.
Earlier, on April 27, the Investigative Committee announced that it had initiated a case against Askerov on the rehabilitation of Nazism (Part 4 of Article 354.1 of the Criminal Code; it could face a fine of up to 5 million rubles. or imprisonment for up to five years). According to investigators, Askerov published on his Facebook page no later than April 6 (the social network belongs to the Meta company recognized as a terrorist and banned in Russia) “deliberately false information insulting and discrediting the memory of the Soviet commander Marshal Georgy Zhukov.
The State Historical Museum (GIM) asked the UK to check one of the posts on the Internet. It reported that a certain user called Zhukov “a murderer in uniform” and “a looter”, and the museum itself “pseudo-historical”. As noted in the ANTHEM, such a statement cannot be ignored, since it “discredits and questions the very meaning of the existence of a Historical museum designed to preserve and popularize Russian history, to prevent attempts to deliberately distort it.”
