On the morning of March 18, the Investigative Committee of Russia announced the detention of comedian Artemy Ostanin at the Belarusian border as he was attempting to leave Russia. Shortly before, authorities had opened a criminal case against the standup performer for «inciting hatred» (Article 282, Part 2, Clause ‘A’ of the Russian Criminal Code) based on a joke about a legless man. According to pro-war Z-channels, Ostanin’s joke allegedly referenced veterans of the war in Ukraine. The comedian himself denies this. Later reports revealed that Ostanin was beaten during his arrest and the comedian was placed in a pre-trial detention center (SIZO).
