Margarita Yudina demanded to reveal the identity of the police officer, who hit her in the stomach

Margarita Yudina, whom a police officer (from Federal National Guard Troops Service) kicked in the stomach at a protest, demanded to provide information about him.

On Monday, February 22nd, Team 29 reported about Margarita Yudina's new demand. Human rights lawyers, along with Yudina, also demanded compensation for the harm caused to her and repeated apologies - only this time not anonymously.

As a reminder, on January 23 in St. Petersburg, on Vosstaniya Square, a riot police officer who detained a participant in the action kicked Margarita Yudina in the stomach as she passed by, from which she flew a meter away from him and fell on her back. After that, she was hospitalized. On January 24, the policeman who hit Margarita Yudina came to her hospital with an apology. According to the security officer, whose face was hidden behind a sterile mask, at the moment the woman was hit, he did not see what was happening because of the fogged up helmet. Yudina stated that she forgives him. Later, Yudina said that she made a statement about forgiving the employee in a state of shock.

After this incident, local authorities said they would check Yudina's sons for evasion from the army.
