FALSELY imprisoned Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich will remain in prison on espionage charges, a Russian court has ruled. The 32-year-old U.S. citizen was detained in late March 2023 while on a reporting trip and has spent over a year behind bars.

His pretrial detention was continued yet again until June 30 in a ruling that he and his lawyers challenged. In the courtroom on Tuesday, Gerhskovich, wearing a white T-shirt and an open checked shirt, looked relaxed, at times laughing and chatting with members of his legal team. He gave a heroic thumbs up as he remains locked up on bogus charges which have yet to be backed up by the Russian authorities.
