– Belousov was deprived of the Order “For Merit to the Fatherland” of the second degree, was forbidden to hold public office, – a correspondent reports from the courtroom MSK1.RU Ekaterina Ryabchuk. – Butakova was left on her own recognizance until the verdict enters into force. Belousov’s measure of restraint in the form of a subscription was changed to detention pending the entry into force of the sentence.
