According to information provided by the agency, a woman named Z.S. contacted the First May District Department of Internal Affairs for help due to threats from a citizen A.I. Preliminary data indicates that A.I. learned about the detention of the applicant's husband by the State Committee for National Security on March 2, 2026, and began threatening her with filing a complaint against her husband, as well as blackmailing her, claiming that the situation could worsen after his appeal.
