A legal complaint has been filed naming Anna Tikhaya, whose real surname is Anna Tikhomirova, concerning her involvement with the so-called “Boys” program. The report comes from 72.ru and has been echoed by local observers following the case’s progression.
The charges brought against Tikhaya fall under the Criminal Code’s Article 112, which covers crimes against life and health. If convicted, she could face a prison sentence of up to three years. The case was initiated by Nadezhda Tereshina, a Moscow resident who asserts that an altercation occurred with one participant during the practice session of the program in Moscow. Tereshina says she lost consciousness after being struck in the face, and medical assessments described concussion, closed head injury, multiple skull fractures, and a displaced orbital fracture as a consequence of the incident.
Tereshina also notes that there was no prior dispute with Tikhaya. She expressed concern about Tikhomirova’s recent activity on Instagram, a platform now marked as extremist by Russian authorities and banned within the country. She alleges that a child associated with the program posted a photograph of the trial and referred to the victim in derogatory terms, using the word sick. The broader social media context appears to be a point of contention in the public narrative surrounding the case.
Tereshina described the courtroom dynamics, stating that she avoids direct eye contact with Tikhaya during sessions due to fear, and acknowledged that the defendant often arrives late or misses initial meetings. The seriousness of the alleged injuries has intensified scrutiny of the events, while the upcoming hearing dates are closely watched by observers and participants alike. The third hearing is scheduled for December 5, a date that could bring further clarity to the sequence of events and the legal arguments on both sides.
In related local news, a separate incident involved a public figure known as Blogger Sasha Stone who reported the loss of expensive headphones in a taxi. This anecdote was mentioned in connection with ongoing public interest in personal property and the conduct of individuals involved in high-profile public narratives, illustrating how varied facets of controversy can intersect in local media coverage.
