In late June, a conflict erupted at a cafe when Uzbek migrant workers, intoxicated and harassing a married woman, struck her twice after she refused their advances. Local men defended her, and during the scuffle Nikita N. sustained a broken tooth. The attackers fled to a dormitory, where Nikita and his friends entered armed with a galvanized pipe and a paintball gun, escalating the situation into a riot. Police intervened, arresting Nikita and sending the attackers home. Nikita was later detained in a local detention center for five months, while the migrant worker continued working at the Pavlovsk poultry plant. The woman’s complaint was denied, and her lawyer urged the police to investigate her case, but authorities could not locate her. After a brief investigation in October, Nikita was charged with hooliganism and the case was fast‑tracked to court. Security measures were heightened around the Pavlovsk court, with police and special forces escorting Nikita, and the judge prohibited filming the proceedings. The victims’ testimonies from November, now fourteen in number, could not be shown, but this narrative outlines the events surrounding Nikita N. and his legal battle.
