Ivan Zhdanov posted on social networks the Interior Ministry's orientation towards himself. It says that the lawyer was put on the wanted list under a certain article of the Criminal Code.
“This is the situation here. Less than 2 days after the FBK was recognized as an extremist organization, I was put on the wanted list. And the photo in the search database of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is not very good at all. I don't even know where they got it from. And how can I replace it now? Let us now call them something, demand a replacement. In the second photo I look much more like a bandit, I suggest it”, - said the lawyer.
He added that he did not know what the search was connected with.
“Probably with a dozen criminal cases that were brought against me. Dealing with which one is definitely difficult. Just now, my lawyer Vladimir Voronin was not admitted to the case against me under Article 239 of the Criminal Code. We will seek his participation in the court. Modern politicians, Navalny's associates, are either on the wanted list or in prison. This is understandable”, - said Ivan Zhdanov.
He explained that this is because the main opposition politician, Alexey Navalny, is still being held in prison in Russia.
