The Lenin District Court found singer Diana Loginova, who performs under the stage name Naoko, and guitarist Oleg Orlov guilty of "violating regulations for public movement." The court denied a request from their lawyer, Maria Zyryanova, to summon as witnesses the individuals who filed complaints against the musicians, along with the police officers who compiled the case materials. Loginova, Orlov, and drummer Vladislav Leontyev were first arrested and jailed on October 15.
