Write a letter

She is a resident of Vologda, a document management operator at Baltiyskaya Logistica Vologda LLC. She is a member of an animal protection society, and before her arrest she had 20 cats rescued from the streets in her care. On 5 August 2025, she was detained in a case of justification of terrorism because of a comment under the post of the Telegram channel of the Siberian Battalion fighting on the side of Ukraine: "Guys, you are the best! Not some Putin's suckers and other scum!".

On the same day, when questioned by an investigator, Nazarova said she had a negative attitude towards the Russian authorities and opposed the "special military operation" and mobilisation. "I want this military conflict to end as soon as possible," the interrogation protocol reads.

Nazarova was placed in custody the day after her detention.

On 1 December 2025, Nazarova was sentenced to two years in a general regime colony.
