A Muscovite was fined 50 thousand rubles under an article about “discrediting” the army because of his dyed hair.

At the end of April this year, Stas Netesov came to the police department to write a statement about theft - he was attacked at a bus stop, his phone was stolen and his tooth was knocked out. However, a report was drawn up against him for “discrediting” the RF Armed Forces.

The police did not like the appearance of the young man; they considered his blue and yellow hair colors to be support for Ukraine. In addition, security forces took fingerprints from the young man. They also told Netesov that they would force him to “kiss his native soil in the trenches” and handed him a summons to the military registration and enlistment office.

The Tverskoy Court of Moscow fined Netesov 50 thousand rubles in early May.

    It doesn’t even look like his hair is in support of Ukraine. It’s got green.

      I mean, I feel for the kid and I hope someone gets him out, but let’s not pretend like the back of his head isn’t the Ukrainian flag though. This kid is either profoundly stupid or was intentionally pushing the boundaries.

      I support him if that’s what he was doing, but it’s not hard to see how this happened.

      Honestly, now that it’s been said, I think his friends should have told him it was too risky. I mean, it’s absurd that he’s being fined and sent to war because of his hair color, but keep in mind where he is and the current vibe of the nation. Poor guy.
