Protection of the Pokemon catcher Ruslan Sokolovsky demanded that the blogger be declared innocent. Lawyer Alexei Bushmakov said that the prosecutor's request to imprison a young man for 3 years and 6 months is too harsh punishment.
"The criminal case caused public outcry not only in Russia, but in the world. The themes that Sokolovsky raises, eternal. They have always been conflicting. Therefore now all this is perceived as persecution for opinion. His views are controversial and for some are unacceptable, but does this mean that he is guilty? Is it possible to judge a person for bad taste and bad upbringing? "- said Alexei Bushmakov.
The lawyer admitted that at first he did not want to take up the Sokolovsky case.
"Now I understand what a positive person this is," Bushmakov stressed..
