Ms. Nemtsova is accused of organizing the activities of an undesirable organization (part 3 of Art. 284.1 of the Criminal Code), under this article she faces up to six years in prison. In late July, the Zamoskvoretsky district court of Moscow in absentia chose the journalist a measure of restraint, because after the murder of her father, she lives abroad.
