The Russian Telegram channel Astra reported the information.

The tourist was found guilty of "discrediting" the Russian army. He was also fined RUB 50,000 (around USD 562).

According to Astra, on the afternoon of June 4, Moscow police detained a 30-year-old tourist from Iran, Hidari Hossein. The reason for his detention was him walking in the center of Moscow wearing a Balenciaga sweatshirt. This sweatshirt featured a trident on the sleeves, the flag of Ukraine on one side, and a call to help Ukrainians on the other.
