Two men in St. Petersburg have been fined 2,000 rubles each for providing intimate services to other men. The administrative protocols against the men were registered in early May, following an investigation into their activities between January and April 2025.

The investigation revealed that the men were receiving clients in an apartment on Belgradskaya Street. They charged 7,000 rubles for their services.

Neither of the men attended the court proceedings. Daria Lebedeva, head of the united press service of St. Petersburg, confirmed the fines. The men were found guilty of engaging in prostitution.
