So odd that a lawsuit and bail is mentioned and yet no actual details. A variety of advocates and etc are supposedly outraged and up in arms etc. And yet no deets. Almost as if some website with Kiev in the domain might be spewing bullshit against Russia. Definitely doesn't smell like desperate LLM bullshit.

Well in the interim I found someone spamming the same text on Linkedin. In another comment they're linking to a ZDF interview with Buma from the 12th so it's probably about that.
