At the beginning of February 2024, the Head of the Investigative Committee ordered a criminal case to be opened against the pediatrician of Moscow polyclinic No. 140 on Yan Raynis Boulevard, 67-year-old Nadezhda Buyanova. The reason for the persecution of the medic was a publication in the Telegram channel Mash. Allegedly, Anastasia Akinishina brought the child for an examination due to eye problems. During the examination, the boy began to act up, and the doctor asked what was wrong with him. She answered that her son was longing for his father, who had died in Ukraine. According to the soldier's wife, the pediatrician said: 'Your husband was a legitimate target for Ukraine' (again, allegedly mockingly).
