State Duma deputy Vitaly Milonov, accompanied by activists and police, conducted a raid on an alleged erotic salon on Ligovsky Prospekt in St. Petersburg on the evening of Friday, May 30. Milonov’s assistant, Ilya Evstigneev, confirmed the information.

The deputy focused on a person advertised as “transsexual Jacqueline,” filming her and demanding her real name before filing a police report. Milonov speculated that the individual was a member of a national minority, possibly from Central Asia, and solicited guesses for the person’s passport name from his followers.

Police are reportedly investigating a report concerning a transsexual person and a suspected brothel in a building near Herzen State Pedagogical University. A massage parlor is known to operate in the building.
