A dozen Moscow clubgoers were found guilty of “petty hooliganism” and detained following anti-LGBTQ “propaganda” raids by Russian security forces, according to Russian court documents and local news reports. The group was arrested on Saturday night and early Sunday at three nightclubs — Arma, Inferno and Mono — in the Russian capital, according to a statement government officials gave to Tass, a Russian news agency. “These citizens committed an administrative offense, which was expressed in obvious disrespect for society, accompanied by obscene language in a public place,” a Moscow court wrote in two statements announcing the guilty verdicts.
