    A Russian municipal court sentenced environmental activists Suren
    Ghazaryan and Yevgeny Vetishko to a three-year suspended prison term.

    And the prosecution was demanding such sentence.

    They were found guilty of causing deliberate damage to the fence of
    the Black Sea Coast summer home of Governor Alexander Tkachev of the
    Krasnodar Region.

    The defense intends to appeal the verdict, attorney Marina Dubrovina
    told RFE/RL.

    They say Ghazaryan's and Vetishko's criminal persecution is conditioned
    on their civil activeness.
