A resident of Bakhchysaray. On the evening of 25 August 2023, he urinated on a sculpture of Z and V symbols located on an alley dedicated to the invasion of Ukraine. The next day, he was detained and forced to record a video apologising and expressing support for the war. In the recording, you can hear the rustling of pages behind the scenes. At the end of the video, Tiurenko reads the text of the Russian anthem. He explained his act by the fact that he was drunk. A criminal case of vandalism on the motive of political hatred was opened against Tiurenko. Later, it became known that he was also charged with insulting the memory of the defenders of the Fatherland. On 29 January 2024, Tiurenko was sentenced to two years' suspended sentence. On 9 April, the Court of Appeal replaced the suspended sentence with two years in a penal colony. Presumably, he was released in November 2025.
