The administration of the Moscow Garden "Hermitage" tore off the children's holiday "Hello, School, New Year", out of fear that a candidate for mayors of the capital, Alexei Navalny, who was appointed on September 1. This was reported by the organizer of the event - TV presenter and member of the coordination council of the opposition Tatyana Lazarev.
According to Lazareva, the managers told her that the holiday could turn into a pre -election campaign of Navalny. “They apologized very much, swore that they respect me and are ready to cooperate further, but they also have children and they could be fired from work for this,” Lazareva wrote.
Lazareva has not yet decided to cancel or transfer the holiday. The opportunity to turn to Navalny so that he confirms his non -participation in the event, Lazareva does not consider.
On Sunday, Navalny was detained by the police after a meeting with voters in Sokolniki. "One of the candidates for mayors of Moscow on Sunday was invited for a conversation to the police department in connection with the violations of the current legislation during a mass event," the press service of the police headquarters said. Later, the police clarified that we are talking about inconsistent use of sound amplification, as well as the installation of a scene that prevents the "normal movement of pedestrians."
Techniques were also detained, which at the end of the meeting dismantled the scene and sound equipment. "Citizens were released after the preparation of administrative protocols on them: on five - for the appearance of intoxicated in public places, in seven - for damage to green spaces," the press service of the capital's head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs said. “The meaning of the detention of the technicians is simple: to scare off the remaining contractors,” Leonid Volkov wrote on Twitter on Twitter.
On Tuesday, the Moscow authorities invited Navalny’s supporters to hold a rally on September 6 on Academician Sakharov Avenue, noting that they were ready to coordinate the number of up to 25 thousand people.
