Attack in Lipetsk

On August 29, 2006, in Lipetsk, Alexander Astretsky, leader of the Nashi regional branch, was attacked by three young men. According to the victim, he was the victim of a skinhead attack.

Young people stopped A. Astretskikh in the street with the question "Are you an anti-fascist?", and, having heard an affirmative answer, they beat them. At the same time, one of them shouted "and we are fascists . "

The attackers were detained by the police for two weeks. The Department for Combating Organized Crime of the Internal Affairs Directorate of the Lipetsk Region joined the investigation.

Note that there is a lot of obscurity in this attack. Unlike a rocker or a punk, it is very difficult to single out a representative of the Nashi movement on the street. Therefore, it is not entirely clear how he was identified as the target of the attack.
