Alexey Moskalev, a single father who became the target of a felony case after his daughter got in trouble at school for drawing an anti-war picture in art class, has been arrested, the independent outlet Spektr reported on Wednesday, citing a person who knows the family.
According to Spektr, police searched the family’s home before arresting Moskalev, and his daughter, Masha, is now home alone. The outlet also reported that police visited the home of a volunteer who has been helping support the family.
Moskalev has previously expressed fears that his arrest could cause his daughter to be sent to live in a shelter.
