A librarian from Pskov, she was in favour of preserving the historical image of the city and against the demolition of ancient buildings. A case was brought against her for financing extremist activities due to ACF (Anti-Corruption Foundation) donations. In December 2025, the case went to court. On 20 February 2026, the resident of Pskov was sentenced to a fine of 300 thousand rubles.
