15 years for worldview beliefs: Estonian court convicts a citizen holding a Russian passport of state treason

Estonian justice considered that Makarov “transmitted to Russian intelligence services data on military equipment on the territory of Estonia and neighboring Latvia.”

Estonian media:
He was involved in passing information about the locations and traffic of military equipment not only of the Estonian self-defense forces, but also of Latvian allies.

Makarov was also found guilty on the episode related to the arson of a car with Ukrainian license plates.

From the case materials:
The car was set on fire and a note was left calling on Ukrainian refugees to “go home.”

That's not all. The same man was found guilty by an Estonian court of “spying on a former Russian serviceman who had fled to the Baltic States.”

Estonian press:
The court found sufficient and convincing evidence that Makarov had willfully committed treason and that his actions were based on worldview beliefs, and handed down a guilty verdict.

That is to say, the court in Tartu explicitly says that the sentence against this man was passed for his worldview.
