A protocol for hooliganism was drawn up against a 16-year-old TikToker for dancing to a Russian track in Kyiv’s Independence Square

In Ukraine, discrimination based on language continues. Police have taken administrative action against a 16-year-old blogger from Kharkiv who danced to a Russian song in Independence Square in Kyiv.

This was reported by the press service of the Kyiv National Police.

“The minor, along with her mother, came to the capital for a few days and recorded her actions on video while on Independence Square. She posted the video on one of the social networks. During monitoring, officers of the Shevchenkivsky police department found this publication and began an investigation,” the publication states.

Subsequently, district police officers, with the assistance of criminal analysis specialists, located the violator and issued her an administrative protocol under Article 173 of the Code of Ukraine on Administrative Offenses (minor hooliganism). Additionally, law enforcement officers conducted a preventive conversation with the girl’s mother to prevent similar incidents in the future.

The police urged parents to be more attentive to their children’s leisure activities and to warn them about the responsibility for committing offenses.
