The leader of the “Accident” apologized for the obscene gesture addressed to the Novosibirsk policeman

Musician Alexei Kortnev apologized for an indecent gesture addressed to a Novosibirsk police officer. Video with his appeal posted Telegram channel TV channel “Star”.

“On February 15 of this year, an extremely unpleasant episode occurred in Novosibirsk, or rather in Akademgorodok. We were supposed to have a concert there. It was canceled for technical reasons, which made me extremely, I would say, nervous. I was very annoyed. And in this state, he showed an obscene gesture to a police officer who was on duty, which offended him. I’m sorry about what happened,” said the leader of the “Accident” group. According to the musician, he has already apologized to the policeman himself.

The concert of Alexei Kortnev and Dmitry Chuvelev was supposed to take place on February 14 in one of the clubs, but was canceled. Mr. Kortnev reported that he was detained in Novosibirsk, but “the incident is over.” In April became knownthat a criminal case was initiated against the musician under Art. 319 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (insulting a representative of the authorities).
