Yakut comedian Nyurgun Atakov faces administrative charges under Article 20.3.1 of the Administrative Code for allegedly inciting ethnic hatred or hostility. The Telegram channel "Torboznoe radio" reports this development.

According to the channel's sources, authorities twice attempted to bring Atakov's case before Yakutsk City Court in June. However, both attempts failed when the court sent the case back to police investigators, citing procedural irregularities in the documentation.
