(Reuters) - The chief executive of Nasdaq-listed internet company Yandex faces prosecution in a Russian court for alleged offences under the country’s so-called “LGBT propaganda” law, a notice on the court's website said on Wednesday.
The move to prosecute Artem Savinovsky, for which no hearing date was listed, comes a day after a different court levied a 1 million rubles ($11,048) fine against an online film database owned by Yandex under the same law.
