Case of Baksan resident about discrediting Russian militaries reaches court

A court in Baksan has taken for proceedings the criminal case initiated against Khusen Gukov, a local resident, accused of discrediting the Russian Army.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that on August 7, law enforcers conducted a search at the home of a 58-year-old resident of Baksan. A phone was confiscated from him, from which, according to investigators, he had posted discrediting publications about the Russian Army in his page in a closed social network.
