Russian journalist Marina Ovzyannikova is arrested in Moscow


Russian journalist Marina Ovsyannikova has been arrested.

Moscow - According to media reports, her family and her lawyer have meanwhile confirmed the incident. Russian journalist Ivan Ruslyannikov wrote on Twitter that Ovzyannikova was accused of discrediting the Russian army. At the same time he published pictures that are supposed to show the arrest in front of a house in the greater Moscow area.

Ovzyannikova gained international notoriety in March when, during a live newscast on a semi-state Russian TV station, she burst into the studio and held up a placard protesting Russia's aggressive war in Ukraine. Later she worked temporarily as a correspondent for Die Welt. Only a few days ago she had demonstrated alone with a poster in front of the Kremlin, apparently without any consequences at first.
