Russian actor from 'Bandits of Petersburg' received a default sentence in Ukraine.


The court sentenced Russian actor Dmitry Pyevtsov to 10 years in prison for supporting the war of the Russian Federation against Ukraine
Russian actor Dmitry Pyevtsov, who is also a deputy of the State Duma, received a sentence for spreading anti-Ukrainian narratives at mass events attended by President Putin. He also appeared on Russian television, calling for the seizure of power and the entire territory of Ukraine. Pyevtsov even spoke about his 'vote for the annexation' of occupied territories to the Russian Federation.
The Security Service (SBU) gathered evidence of Pyevtsov's support for Moscow's aggressors and his denial of the war crimes of the occupiers in Mariupol. Based on this evidence, the court sentenced the actor to 10 years in prison and confiscation of his property.
This is not the first case where Ukraine responds to support for Russian aggression. Earlier, the Ministry of Culture and Strategic Communications included Russian actor Nikita Dzhigurda in the list of individuals threatening the national security of the country.
