Chairman of the Public Chamber of the Russian Federation Commission on Security Anton Tsvetkov stated this today at a press conference.
“I am ashamed of what he did. Thank God, he turned out to be a citizen of Ukraine, not Russia,” Tsvetkov said.
According to him, the hooligan initially showed the ID of an assistant to one of the Moscow municipal deputies, so he was allowed into the Lumiere Brothers Center for Photography, where the organizers of the exhibition made a statement to the press about the closure of the exhibition.
“When the press conference ended, and the journalists were about to leave, this assistant to the deputy, as it later turned out, a citizen of Ukraine, began to shout. I saw how this scoundrel took out a plastic bottle with a cloudy liquid and began to pour water on the photographs and journalists. My first reaction was that it was gasoline. Two inspectors from the Crime Prevention Center who were in the back blocked him and handed him over to the police, no one beat him. It later turned out that he is a member of the organization "SERB"(positioning itself as a certain "Social movement from the South-East of Ukraine” and “famous” for the desecration of the memorial at the site of the death of Boris Nemtsov, - Ed), Tsvetkov said.
The exhibition “Without Embarrassment” was opened in Moscow on September 8. Among other things, it showed photographs of famous teenagers. Blogger Elena Miro wrote that this is “pornography.” After the scandal that arose and attempts by activists to block the event, the organizers decided to close the exhibition on September 25.
On September 26, the Zamoskvoretsky Court of Moscow today arrested for seven days 46-year-old Ukrainian citizen Alexander Petrunko, who leaked photographs. Petrunko did not admit guilt, noting that he did not consider his act to be hooliganism, but acted out of a sense of duty. According to him, he doused the exhibited photographs with “healing mud from Crimea.”
