The verdict is not final and can still be appealed
SOFIA: A Russian court has sentenced a Bulgarian-Russian dual national to three years in prison on charges of “justifying terrorism,” Bulgaria’s foreign ministry told AFP on Thursday.
The ministry has said the case shows Russia’s “systematic” actions against dissent.
Russia has detained, fined or jailed large numbers of people, including Westerners, on charges of alleged treason, terrorism, sabotage and spying, in what rights groups say is a crackdown on dissent.
