Participants in Saturday's riots are being detained in Russia
Participants in illegal protests in support of liberal blogger Alexei Navalny are being detained in Russia.
Security forces are working on the most zealous activists who have attacked law enforcement officers and called for riots.
Thus, the Main Investigative Directorate of the Investigative Committee in Moscow detained a man who, on January 23, attacked a policeman and hit him on the head several times on Pushkinskaya Square.
As a PolitNavigator correspondent reports, a criminal case has been opened against him under Art. 318 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (use of violence against a representative of the authorities). The police also detained another “activist” who, in the Presnensky district, in response to a policeman’s demands to stop the car, hit him.
“Currently, two men, who are natives of the Republic of Kalmykia, have been detained, they will be charged in the near future, and a preventive measure has been chosen,” the Investigative Committee reports.
Law enforcement officers also detained a taxi driver from Nizhny Novgorod, who worked in Moscow and is also accused of attacking security forces.
The well-known TikToker Konstantin Kyiv (Konstantin Lakeev), whose page has about 800 thousand subscribers, was suspected of attacking an FSB car. His detention took place on the territory of the so-called “TikTok house”, where the young man lived with other bloggers. He and 12 other associates are in one of the police departments in New Moscow.
There were also arrests in regions of the country. Thus, in Rostov, Kirill Kirilenko and his sister Yulia, who organized an unauthorized rally, were detained as part of a criminal case under Art. 212 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation “Mass riots”. Previously, they had already been brought to administrative responsibility under Art. Art. 6.1, 20.2 of the Administrative Code in the form of a fine of 15 rubles each.
In Yekaterinburg, security forces summoned for questioning a certain “girl Katya,” who during the protests stated that Russia lives according to the laws of thieves, and she herself has been “in the zone” more than once.
During the investigation, it turned out that Catherine is under 18 years old.
“I was called to the juvenile room tomorrow at 9 am. They called my mother and told me this wonderful news. They said that it was because I was at an unauthorized rally, they didn’t explain anything else,” Katya told local publication E1.
“Now Katya’s parents find out that it turns out that minors are not allowed to hang out at mass riots. And it is they, the parents, who are responsible for this. Oh, this Russia, my dad and mom can’t drink, they can’t play with the PlayStation, they force us to look after the children. Putin definitely needs to go.
Then time will pass. And Katya will call the reception offices of large structures where she is trying to get a job and ask: “I sent you a resume, and you sent it back to me, on it there is a genital drawn and it says “Go to McDonald's,” why is that? " In the meantime, Katya tells readers of the largest American Internet portal in the Urals that there is no need to be afraid, but rather to fight for freedom and for Navalny.
After all, when Navalny becomes president, all children will be allowed to participate in fights with the police, smoke, inject drugs and drink. And another $1000 will be given out every day, just like in Ukraine,” writes local blogger Sergei Kolyasnikov on his page.
