On October 31st 2022, two anarchist teenagers from Chita, Russian Far East, a 19 years old Aleksandr Snezhkov and a 16 year old Lyubov Lizunova were arrested for writing a graffiti ”Death to the regime”. They were also suspected of administrating a telegram channel with anarchist and anti-war messages. They were soon released pending trial, but after an unsuccessful attempt to escape, Alexandr Snezhkov was transferred to a remand prison, and Lyubov Lizunova was transferred to home arrest. Moreover, the case has also a third suspect, whose name has so far not been published by the authorities.
On April 25, 2024, the 1st District Military Court in a visiting session in Chita sentenced Alexander Snezhkov to 6 years, and Lyubov Lizunovа to 3.5 years in prison. On the eve of the debate, the prosecutor asked to appoint Snezhkov 7, Lizunova 5 years. The court also dismissed Lizunova's criminal case of vandalism for graffiti due to the expiration of the statute of limitations on prosecution for minors.
