On 14th of January in St. Petersburg after traditional "Food not Bombs" action (dispensing of vegan food for everybody need it) a group of neonazis 10 in number armed with knives attacked one of the activists. It's an activist who is vegan and a member of the animal rights movement. He was sent to the district hospital with 21 knife wounds. It has to be noted that during action there were already about 7 nazis (it was clear because of their clothes) near watching it.
Condition of victim is grave. He lost much blood. Essential organs are affected. He was operated on yesterday and today he needs blood transfusion. Criminal investigation was instituted by 30 and 105 clauses (murderous assault) Criminal code of Russia.
