MOSCOW, April 27The Tushinsky Court of Moscow sent former pediatrician Nadezhda Buyanova to pre-trial detention, accused of spreading fakes about the Russian army; she was previously prohibited from certain actions, said lawyer Oscar Cherdzhiev.
“Unfortunately, yesterday they changed the preventive measure to detention. There was no violation. We do not agree with either the investigation’s request or the court’s ruling,” said Cherdzhiev. 
< br />The defense lawyer noted that the investigation’s request to tighten the preventive measure was due to the fact that Buyanova left Moscow, but she had no restrictions on movement. She was prohibited from communicating with the participants in the process, using communications and the Internet. The woman did not violate all the prohibitions imposed on her, the interlocutor emphasized.
Today the defense intends to file an appeal against the arrest order.
Earlier, Buyanova was made more serious by the charges brought against her, reclassifying it from part 1 to clause “e” of part 2 of Article 207.3 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (public dissemination of deliberately false information about the use of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation for political and ideological reasons).
The chairman of the Investigative Committee of Russia, Alexander Bastrykin, previously ordered the initiation of a criminal case against her. A woman with a 7-year-old boy came to see Buyanova at the clinic. According to the Investigative Committee, having learned that the child was grieving for his father who died in the Northern Military District zone, the doctor reacted with ridicule, accompanying her reaction with statements about the legal nature of the actions of the armed formations of Ukraine.
