Alexandr Dovydenkov
Biography
On 14 February 2019, criminal proceedings were brought against Dovydenkov on charges of publicly justifying terrorism. The case stemmed from a statement he made about Mikhail Zhlobitsky, who had carried out a suicide bombing at an FSB building in the Arkhangelsk Region.
On 28 March, Dovydenkov was summoned for questioning and placed under house arrest the following day. He was subsequently sentenced to one year in a general-regime penal colony and was released in 2020.
