Russian artist and anti-war activist Katrin Nenasheva arrested for allegedly disobeying police

Police in Russia’s Leningrad region have arrested artist and activist Katrin Nenasheva for 48 hours on misdemeanor charges that she disobeyed police, according to the human rights media project OVD-Info.

Nenasheva’s arrest took place on Monday evening. Musician and activist Natalya Chetverio, who was with Nenasheva at the time, said that two police officers approached the women in a cafe and told Nenasheva she needed to come with them to the station because an all-points bulletin had been issued for her.

It’s unclear where or when Nenasheva is alleged to have disobeyed police.
