Communist Party Digitally Altered Images to Include More Supporters

On August 26th, State Duma deputy, the secretary of the Communist Party, Sergei Obukhov met with residents of Krasnodar. Apparently,  the turnout was not as good as expected by the politician. So, naturally, photographs from the meeting, published on the website of the Communist Party, were digitally altered to include more people. Obviously, the Communist Party didn’t hire a professional to do the job.

Here is the original image.

Shortly after the images went viral in Russian media, Communist party removed them from its website.
