In Nizhny Novgorod, the office of human rights activists has again been defeated
In Nizhny Novgorod, another attack on the office of human rights activist Stanislav Dmitrievsky, an employee of the fund in support of tolerance, was committed. According to Dmitrievsky, three windows with reinforced glass were broken in the basement, the office is flooded with orange paint. “The sledgehammer, which was beaten, is lying right under my table,” the human rights activist said.
On the recording of the surveillance camera it is clear that there were four attackers. “They acted harmoniously. One with a sledgehammer, the other with a crowbar, the third with paint, the fourth with bricks. All in masks, handsome. Putin can be proud of them - the same punks as he,” Dmitrievsky writes on his Facebook page.
Simultaneously with the attack on the city’s office, leaflets with the image of stripped oppositionists in the bath and an offensive signature were placed.
In the office of Dmitrievsky, meetings of the Nizhny Novgorod Civil Movement (NGD), which holds protest actions in the city, hosts. This is the sixth attack on the office this year. On March 2, the window was broken by brick, and the office door was filled with orange paint. On March 24, an attempt was made arson - the facade of the house was doused with gasoline, the glass was broken with bottles of incendiary mixture. In March, a whole series of provocations was committed against Nizhny Novgorod oppositionists, including an attack on the apartment of the activist of another Russia, a member of the NGD Yuri Staroverov. In 2008, the Dmitrievsky apartment was attacked - the window was defeated by bricks, the walls of the house were written out with threats and insults.
Activists of the Nizhny Novgorod Civil Movement believe that employees of law enforcement agencies, in particular the Center, can stand behind the provocations.
On November 4 in Nizhny Novgorod, the General Joint "march of the regions" ( Nizhny Novgorod civil march ) will be held. The city authorities refused to coordinate it.
