> Rosfinmonitoring has added 14-year-old Ivan Maltsev from Barnaul to its list of terrorists and extremists. His father says Ivan is being prosecuted under a terrorism or sabotage statute over an alleged attempt to burn a police car, though he insists there was no arson. The father also said threats preceded the boy’s detention.
