Omsk court put a Greek Catholic parishioner under arrest
The information was provided by the Telegram channel "Christians Against War."
Maksymov placed an icon in the church depicting Cardinal Josyf Slipyj, Stepan Bandera, and Roman Shukhevych.
Maksymov was accused of rehabilitating Nazism (Part 1 of Article 354.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation) and insulting the religious feelings of believers (Part 2 of Article 148 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation). He was also accused of allegedly "spreading among parishioners the idea of the superiority of one religion over another, the superiority of the Ukrainian people over the Russian people."
One of the parish visitors reported the Ukrainian icon in the church building. Maksymov faces up to three years in prison.
House arrest is effective at least until June 17th.
