The young woman was eventually detained by authorities and charged with violating censorship laws. Now, he has to pay a fine of around 560 euros.
The child’s father’s custody hearing was adjourned to the 20th of this month.
54-year-old Alexei Moskalyov criticized the war in Ukraine from the beginning through publications on his social networks. But it was only after a drawing the daughter drew in an art class that authorities started investigating. The school principal called the police and the father was placed under house arrest. As a result, daughter Maria Moskalyova was taken to an orphanage.
The night before the sentencing, Moskalyov decided to leave the country. He was eventually convicted and sentenced to two years in prison for endangering Russian forces. He was arrested the next day, already in Belarus.
After spending two weeks in an orphanage, Maria Moskalyova was taken in by her mother, whom she hadn’t spoken to in seven years, The Washington Post reported. Because Moscaglio’s whereabouts are still unknown, the judge has not made any decisions about the child’s safety — until now. This Friday, the Russian Embassy in Belarus confirmed that Alexei Moskalyov is in Minsk.
The Russian Commissioner for Children’s Rights, Maria Lavova-Belova – who, like Putin, is the subject of an International Criminal Court arrest warrant – said the girl initially did not want to live with her mother, but has since changed her mind.
During Thursday’s hearing, Moskalyo’s lawyer, Vladimir Bilenko, read a letter the father wrote to his daughter: “Mashenka, your father is writing to you. Please stay there. If any of our family members want to stay with you, please accept. It is better than staying in an orphanage. If they take you to court, ask them to stay with father. He pleads with the judge a lot.
