Case Description
In St. Petersburg, in the Admiralteysky district on February 6, 2025, a search was conducted at the home of 59-year-old local resident, author's song performer, composer, and creator of his own guitar school Vadim Stroikin. Police searched the home of a musician as part of a criminal case involving participation in a terrorist organization.
