MOSCOW. May 13 (Interfax) - Russia's Federal Financial Monitoring Service (Rosfinmonitoring) has added arrested journalist Natalya Kevorkova to the list of individuals and organizations regarding whom there is information about their involvement in extremist activities or terrorism.
The corresponding information appeared on Rosfinmonitoring's list on Monday.
By law, banks freeze the funds of individuals on this list and suspend services to them.
Moscow's Basmanny District Court earlier granted the investigators' motion and placed Kevorkova under arrest until July on charges of justifying terrorism.
The defense lawyers had asked the court to decline the investigators' motion and place Kevorkova under house arrest.
Kevorkova is charged with justifying terrorism.
News of the journalist's detention came on Sunday.
Her attorney Kaloi Akhilgov said Kevorkova is charged with justifying terrorism by writing two posts on Telegram, one dating from 2018 in which she published a 2010 text authored by her colleague Orkhan Dzhemal on militants' attack on Nalchik, and a 2021 post on the activities of the Taliban movement (a terrorist organization banned in Russia).
Kevorkova has not admitted her guilt.
