In June 2013, police opened a criminal case against Panin for "intentional destruction of other people's property" due to the debauchery that he initiated in a bar in Tuapse. The same year in August, Ukrainian police opened a criminal case against Panin for "Intentional infliction of minor bodily injury". The media reported that he had a car accident in Crimea. Shortly after the accident, he made a series of insulting statements about Ukraine and the Crimean Tatars and hit a local resident. Later, Panin apologized for his behaviour to the Crimean Tatars.
