In the Smolninsky District Court of St. Petersburg, the administrative case of street singer Diana Loginova (Naoko) was considered under the protocols on organizing a mass event and petty hooliganism for performing songs of “foreign agents.”
As reported by the correspondent of “Mediazona”*, lawyer Sergey Loktev immediately asked the court to summon two police officers as witnesses and to request recordings from the 76th police department, where Naoko and Orlov spent the night, the court immediately denied these motions. The defense also noted that the protocol was written word for word as in the document reviewed by the Dzerzhinsky District Court, which sent the musicians under the first administrative arrest.
Judge Ekaterina Mezentseva first arrested Diana Loginova for 13 days under the article on organizing a mass event, and then in a few minutes reviewed the protocol on petty hooliganism, in which the police claimed that Loginova sang songs with foul language on Nevsky Prospect. For this, she was sentenced to 15 days of administrative arrest.
After that, the court proceeded to review the protocol on Alexander Orlov for organizing a mass event and after a few minutes sentenced him to 13 days of administrative arrest.
Before the hearing, Naoko told journalists that Orlov proposed to her in the police van, and she agreed: the ring was made from a wet wipe, and the box for it was from an “Iqos.”
The drummer of the band Vladislav Leontyev is still in the police department, he also had a repeated protocol drawn up for organizing a mass event.
