Sergei Kurylenko

Resident of Norilsk. In May 2023, he was sentenced to seven days of detention for his Facebook posts under the administrative article on incitement of hatred or enmity (Article 20.3.1 of the Code of Administrative Offences), where he published "derogatory statements" against military personnel, their mothers and Russian citizens. He noted that he published the posts as a sign of support for his Ukrainian relatives. He also said that he had quit his job and sold his flat in Norilsk as he planned to leave Russia. No later than the summer of 2023, Kurylenko was taken into custody: it was reported that cases were initiated against him for spreading deliberately false information about the Armed Forces and for calling for extremist activity. On 17 of September 2024, he was sentenced to six years in a general regime colony.
