MOSCOW, KOMPAS.com – A rapper who attended a celebrity party wearing only socks to hide his private parts has been jailed for 15 days.

Sponsors of several well-known Russian artists also terminated their contracts. President Vladimir Putin was reportedly not happy with the rapper’s reckless actions.

A “nearly naked” party at a nightclub in Moscow was held at a time when Russia was at war with Ukraine.

Reporting from Reuters, the authorities are pushing an increasingly conservative social agenda in this regard.

A video clip showing Putin’s spokesman listening to an explanation from one of the stars present has circulated online.

Photos of the event have reached Putin who appears unimpressed.

Dmitry Peskov, Putin’s spokesman, on Wednesday (27/12/2023) asked journalists to forgive him for not commenting publicly on the developing scandal.

“Let you and I be the only people in this country who do not discuss this topic,” he added.

Maria Zakharova, a spokeswoman for Russia’s Foreign Ministry, said the events had tarnished those who took part.
