Among the new documented crimes of the defendant are Simonyan’s public calls for the mass murder of Ukrainian children in December 2023.
Russian propagandist Margarita Simonyan, who called for the genocide of Ukrainians, in particular, the murder of Ukrainian children, was declared suspicious.
The Security Service of Ukraine documented new crimes of the Russian woman.
“The defendant heads the international mouthpiece of the Kremlin – TV channel “RT” and is part of Putin's media pool. According to the investigation, she was one of the first to support the full-scale invasion of Russia and the war crimes of the Russian occupiers,” the intelligence service noted.
Among the new documented crimes of those involved are public Simonyan's calls for the mass murder of Ukrainian children.
Based on the collected evidence, Security Service investigators informed Simonyan of a new suspicion under four articles of the Criminal Code of Ukraine:
- ch. 2 tbsp. 442 (genocide);
- ch. 2 tbsp. 110 (encroachment on the territorial integrity and inviolability of Ukraine);
- Art. 436 (war propaganda);
- ch. 3 tbsp. 436-2 (justification, recognition as lawful, denial of the armed aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, glorification of its participants).
Since the attacker is hiding from justice on the territory of Russia, comprehensive measures are continuing to bring her to justice.
In March 2023, Simonyan was already reported on suspicion of encroaching on the territorial integrity and inviolability of Ukraine.
