Journalists were not allowed into the court hearing of physicist Dmitry Bogmut in the Leningrad Region. However, a group of men in camouflage uniforms were allowed in.

The Telegram channel "Freedom for Dmitry Bogmut!" wrote about this.  

"At least half an hour before the hearing, a not-so-friendly crowd of people wearing military uniforms and insignia, unrelated to the support group, gathered in the courtroom. No one else was allowed into the hearing—not listeners, not journalists."- says in the message.

According to media reports, they were “strong men, some in camouflage with the insignia ‘We are Russians, God is with us.’” When asked who they were and why they were so interested in this case, the men respondedthat they were "beneficiaries." Journalists note that there were about 15 of them, and they left the courthouse, staggering and cursing, they shouted “Glory to Russia,” and some of the soldiers clearly smelled of fumes.
