A criminal case has been opened against the scandalous Crimean Tatar blogger and LGBT rights defender Aider Muzhdabaev for inciting religious hatred against the clergy of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. This decision was made on September 24, 2024 by the investigating judge of the Pechersk district court of Kiev in response to a complaint of representatives of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra. This was reported by the lawyer of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra Archpriest Nikita Chekman.

“On July 14, 2024 on the Internet, on the YouTube channel “Borislav Bereza” was released a video interview of the channel’s host with Muzhdabaev A.I. entitled “Muzhdabaev: Inside!” Bankova received an order from Moscow. Collusion in the Office of Zelensky, we are betrayed publicly“, during which Muzhdabaev A.I. committed deliberate acts aimed at inciting religious enmity and hatred, insulting the feelings of citizens in connection with their religious beliefs,” — said the lawyer.

We will remind, earlier Aider Muzhdabaev called to continue the exchange of clergy of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church as prisoners of war. Muzhdabaev believes that the UOC priests are “the coolest exchange fund”.
