In the case accusing Ilya Remeslo of deliberately spreading false information about the Russian Armed Forces, the Moscow City Court upheld the detention order.
The court left unchanged the decision of Moscow’s Basmanny District Court and rejected appeals against Remeslo’s detention. His detention was set to continue until September 16.
Most of the hearing was held behind closed doors. Spectators and members of the press were allowed into the courtroom only when the operative part of the ruling was read out.
After the ruling, Remeslo was transferred to the Serbsky Institute for a comprehensive psychological and psychiatric examination.
