By vanrozenheim

(Moscow, Russia) – The main organiser of Moscow Gay Pride was today found guilty of disobeying police officers while breaching traffic rules on May 27 as he and other activists, including European parliamentarians tried to deliver a petition to Moscow City Hall signed by around 50 Members of the European Parliament. Nikolai Alekseev was fined 1,000 roubles (£20, €29, $39), the same as co-organiser and leader of the “Russian Radicals” movement Nikolai Khramov when he was found guilty yesterday in the same court. After the hearing, Mr. Alekseev vowed that he would not pay the fine and would be launching an appeal to the Moscow Tverskoy District Court.
