Blogger Ilya Remeslo Set to Leave Psychiatric Hospital in Two Weeks Blogger Ilya Remeslo, who recently shifted his political stance and openly criticized the government, is scheduled to be discharged from the psychiatric hospital within a fortnight. Remeslo, a 42-year-old lawyer, was admitted to St. Skvortsov-Stepanov Hospital in St. Petersburg at the request of a third party following his online anti-Russian posts. After a day of evaluation, he was moved to a communal room alongside individuals dealing with various mental health issues like depressive psychoses, alcoholism effects, and dementia. Despite the challenging environment, Remeslo's condition remains stable, and he is expected to be released in up to two weeks. Previously known for condemning illicit practices and opposing opposition figures labeled as foreign agents, Remeslo took a sharp turn by openly criticizing the current Russian authorities and engaging in discussions with international media outlets.
