Case1.
A man who confessed being homosexual was beaten by acquaintances and died.He was gotten a light on his clothes, and hit a stone on his head.
Two suspects were detained, but in Russia there is no data on the number of violent cases of homosexuals, and most cases are not reported.

A festival celebrating the harvest of "Gay Smelt" which is a kind of smelt was banned because of "Gay smelt makes gay image"It was banned as.
It was Russian LGBT activist who planned the festival and was planning to call out the banning of "Gay Smelt" which is indispensable for eating life.
We also applied for events related to the four LGBTs at the same time, but the Russian authorities rejected it based on the Law prohibiting homosexuality.
President Putin 's prominent and homosexuality advertising prohibition law was established in 2013, but
In the year 2014 that year the next year was supposed to be the Sochi Olympics.
However, under this law,
each country criticized the campaign,
protesting this law, the campaign of calling for the southern Olympic boycott spread in various countries, US President Obama and German President Gaug declared that the Sochi Olympics did not participate.
In response to this law, the movement spreading calls for the boycott of the Sochi Olympics in each country has expanded,
American singer Mr. Cher refused to appear.
President Putin said
"We will do our utmost to ensure that participants and audiences are satisfied regardless of nationality, race or sexual orientation."
IOC also confirmed that the law will not affect from the top tier of the Russian government,
President Obama also said the United States would not boycott.
Russia is so severe for homosexuals that I think that it does not have to be so strict.
It is quite a terrible thing to have a case to be killed just by declaring,
I think that it would be good if it is not law that is condemned from each country.
It is the most dangerous for foreign gay people to act like promoting homosexuality accidentally.
