The Russophobe comedian was forever blocked from entering Russia
The Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation has decided that the stay (residence) of the Belarusian comedian Idrak Kahin ogly Mirzalizadeh is undesirable for life.
This was reported on the official website of the ministry, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“In his public speech, Idrak Mirzalizadeh made expressions that incite hatred and enmity towards persons of Russian nationality, degrading their human dignity. In this regard, his presence on the territory of the Russian Federation was recognized as threatening public order, the rights and legitimate interests of other persons,” the statement says.
The comedian will be deported from Russia if he does not leave the country.
Mirzalizadeh fled from Azerbaijan, and then from Belarus, to escape conscription into the army. In March 2021, he received a residence permit in Russia.
On July 30, Mirzalizadeh, on the air of the humorous program “Dispersal” on YouTube, said a phrase about the love of Russians for feces. He later claimed it was a joke.
“Perhaps he expressed it a little rudely, but in any case it’s a joke in context and so on. And they cut it all out and began to force it that I was a Russophobe. This is true, I am a Russophobe. My best friend is Kolya Andreev, he is my best friend during this conflict, and Kolya really has a *** mattress. Applaud in the hall, Russians, now they get up and leave,” he added.
The prosecutor's office opened an administrative case for inciting hatred and humiliation of human dignity. On August 9, the Tagansky District Court of Moscow sentenced the comedian to 10 days of administrative arrest. He served his time.
The liberal public launched a campaign in defense of Mirzalizadeh. In particular, comedians from the Gazprom-owned TNT television channel took part in it.
Now they present the case in such a way that Mirzalizadeh suffered for supporting the Talysh movement in Azerbaijan and Belomaidan.
However, many people were offended by Mirzalizadeh’s “joke”. A collection of signatures was announced on the Internet for the deportation of the comedian from the country. One man, meeting Mirzalizadeh by chance on the street, hit him in the face. The “Joker” contacted the police regarding this fact.
