One student questioned the teacher’s statement and recorded it. When the data was delivered to the police, the teacher was sentenced to five years’ imprisonment, suspended, for defaming the military.
There has been a series of snitching by ordinary citizens in Russia, with students accusing teachers and online comments reported to the authorities via a communications application.
