Supporters could find her, but she turned up in court and with a lawyer.
Maria Ovsyannikova, who ran out with an anti-war poster live on Channel One, will be defended in court by Belarusian Anton Gashinsky. Anton Gashinsky is a former Belarusian lawyer who lost his license in his homeland and received a new license in Russia.

* Marina Ovsyannikova was fined 30,000 Russian rubles under an article about organizing an unauthorized public event, writes @mediazzzona
* Russian court fines the TV protester 30,000 rubles ($280 USD) and releases her
First comments from Ovsyannikova: 14-hour interrogation, denied her access to lawyers, she’ll talk more tomorrow after some sleep. She speaks English at the end of this video.

comments, unsubstantiated
* Gotta say, this feels more than a little bit suspicious. Russia goes from arresting people for blank signs to releasing a woman who held up a sign on national TV in less than a day? Good if true but seems sus as fuck.
* I don't know, but something about this feels like...hmmm.
* She waits another trial and up to 15 yrs in jail for another crime.
* That would be more logical I guess, maybe the Kremlin wants to calm it down in order for the Russian people to forget about her quickly then get her trialed in silence.
Marina Ovsyannikova was fined 30,000 rubles ($280) for urging people to protest in a video posted online.
However, her TV protest is still the subject of a separate criminal probe under the new law that bans spreading “fake news” about Russia’s military.
