They also went on a hunger strike. The prisoners climbed onto a tower on the territory of the zone and hung a poster there that read “Help, people.” People began to gather near the walls of the colony, after which riot police arrived there. The police detained 30 people. Those who gathered near the walls of the colony complained of rough treatment by riot police officers.
