The Moscow Lefortovo District Court has initiated a fresh legal action involving blogger Anastasia Ivleeva in connection with the so-called naked party. The case was reported by RIA News, which stated that the plaintiff, identified as Anastasia P., is seeking the recovery of one billion dollars and a transfer of those funds to a fund supporting participants in the special operation known as Defenders of the Fatherland. This development highlights the ongoing scrutiny surrounding Ivleeva and the event that drew widespread attention.
The gathering, notable for its provocative dress code described as nearly nude, took place on December 20, 2023. Among the attendees were well-known figures from Russian media and entertainment, including Ksenia Sobchak, Lolita Milyavskaya, Olga Orlova, Philip Kirkorov, Dzhigan, Oksana Samoilova, and Dima Bilan. The participants, including Ivleeva and several other celebrities, publicly apologized for appearing at the open party, signaling an attempt to address the controversy in the public arena.
In a related development, on January 10 the court ordered a 90-day suspension of operations at the Mutabor club following Ivleeva’s party. The suspension was tied to violations of sanitary and epidemiological requirements, with authorities noting that a person infected with a contagious disease was present at the event. The decision underscores the intersection of entertainment events with public health regulations and regulatory oversight in the jurisdiction where the case is unfolding.
Thus far Ivleeva has faced three separate claims, each requesting one billion rubles in damages. The actress and public figure has denied the allegations, asserting that the claims lack substantiation and fail to reflect the facts of the situation. The ongoing litigation will require careful examination of the evidence, event timelines, and the precise legal basis for the requested damages, as well as considerations of defamation and reputational impact in the public sphere.
Rumors and statements surrounding the case have also touched on potential movements of individuals connected to the matter. Earlier reports mentioned Natalya Vetlitskaya indicating a willingness to return to Russia from Spain at a listed sum, which could have implications for the broader discourse surrounding the case and the individuals involved. The full legal process remains underway as the court reviews filings, responses, and any counterclaims, with updates anticipated as the proceedings progress.
