The Meshchansky District Court of Moscow decided to compulsory hospitalization in the psychiatric hospital of a US citizen Joseph Tatra, accused of attacking a policeman after a conflict in the capital’s Radisson capital. This was announced by TASS with reference to the case file. According to the agency, during the investigation, Moscow doctors revealed a “mental disorder” from the Tatra. “On March 15, 2025, a commission of psychiatrists revealed the following mental disorders among a Tatra Joseph citizen: tension, impulsiveness, delusional ideas and relationships, persecution, impact of special significance, lack of criticism to his state,” TASS quoted the case file. The defense of the American called his hospitalization illegal and unreasonable. “The representative of the investigating authority could not extend the measure of restraint to Tater, and therefore decided to isolate the client from society by placing in a psychiatric hospital,” said the representative of the defense of the tater. The detention of a US citizen Joseph Tatra became known in August 2024. A criminal case on the use of violence against a police officer (part 1 of Article 318 of the Criminal Code) was opened against him. Interfax reported that the 46-year-old tatter tried to settle in the Radisson Blu Olimpyiskiy hotel, but he was refused, because the US citizen did not have a migration card, as well as because of “aggressive behavior”. It was alleged that the American “obscene was expressed both in Russian and in English.” TASS writes that in the hotel the man was detained by police officers and delivered to the department where he refused to show identification documents and “roughly grabbed law enforcement officers by the hand. The court sent the taters to the pre -trial detention center. In March 2025, the American was released on a recognizance not to leave. (Tagstotranslate) News
