Oleg Mikhailov, a former member of the Russian State Duma representing the Communist Party of the Russian Federation (KPRF), was detained in Moscow on October 21, 2024, on charges of 'justifying terrorism' under Article 205.2, Part 2 of the Russian Criminal Code. He was subsequently arrested by the Basmanny District Court and sent to pre-trial detention until December 21, with the case reportedly linked to a 2024 social media post defending social scientist Boris Kagarlitsky, who was previously convicted for similar charges.
