Rostov region, April 25, 2024. DON24.RU. The Sovetsky District Court of Rostov-on-Don arrested for five days Artem Oleksenko, a Komsomol activist of the Lenin Communist Youth Union of the Russian Federation (LKSM RF) and the regional branch of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, a student at one of the prestigious universities of the Don capital, for posting Nazi symbols on the social network VKontakte. . This was reported by 1rnd.ru with reference to a personal source in the court.
The young man congratulated the ideological inspirer of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Lenin, on his 154th birthday, posting a photo of the communist leader in a Nazi cap on his page. The security forces also found several other memes of an extremist nature on the person involved.
It is noted that the guy did not admit his guilt. The person involved said that he posted this content at the request of a friend in order to increase the rating and traffic to his page.
“Senior associates of the Komsomol member, members of the regional branch of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, later tried to explain the young man’s antics by saying that his page had allegedly been hacked,” the source reports.
It is reported that the specified content disappeared from his account the next day due to negative publications in the media and social networks.
“These memes were posted on the activist’s page back in 2020. If his page had been hacked and “hijacked,” he would not have been able to access it, delete the complaint materials, and change his avatar. So no one hacked his page,” a specialist from a Rostov IT company told 1rnd.ru.
