Biography
A resident of Komi, Rossokhin was charged with calls to terrorism following comments deemed as public incitement to attacks on the life of a Russian statesman. Komiinform released footage showing his detention by FSB officers, who pulled him from the passenger seat of a lorry and forced him face down into the snow.
In March 2023, Rossokhin was added to Rosfinmonitoring’s list of extremists and terrorists. On 24 July 2023, he was sentenced to two and a half years in a general regime penal colony.
