Russia convicts Putin-critic MH17 killer for ‘inciting extremism’
The MH17 killer has been sentenced‚ but not in the Netherlands‚ not for life‚ and not for the murder of 298 people. Â
Igor Girkin‚ a pro-war Russian nationalist‚ was instead found to be complaining too much on social media about President Vladimir Putin’s leadership of the war against Ukraine.
A court in Moscow on Thursday found Girkin guilty on charges of inciting extremism after his series of diatribes against the Russian leader appeared to go too far.
