Activist who expressed his position on UN inaction to be tried for hooliganism
On 7 June, stickers reading "Useless" appeared on UN vehicles for inaction after occupants blew up the Kakhovska HPP dam. The relevant photos were posted on Twitter by a user named Yoss (Joseph Husak).
Yesterday he released a text message demanding to appear at the Podilskyi district court in Kyiv.
Joseph Gusak as a person charged with administrative offence is informed that the court hearing in case 758/7017/23 under Article 173 of the Code of Administrative Offences is scheduled for 8:50 am on September 22, 2023," the message said.
