Detention on the Constitution Day: 5 people remain in the police

The police remain five people detained in the capital on the Constitution Day. This is Stanislav Belansky, Grigory Semenov, Sergey Chinenov, Alexey Nikitin and Karl Mars. Mars was originally not mentioned among the detainees. The civil activist Mikhail Shulman wrote about his detention on his Facebook page. A copy of the detention report was also published there.

According to Schulman, Mars did not participate in the procession and rally, he passed by and “pulled the saffer of the provocateur”, who beat an elderly man. Meanwhile, the reported report states that it was part of a group of citizens in the amount of about 200 people "blocked the sidewalk, entrance to the metro station" Pushkinskaya ", interfering with a free passage of citizens." During the detention, he allegedly exerted active physical resistance.

In total, December 12 in Moscow, the police detained more than 30 participants in the protest. The action, which was held instead of the "march of change" instead of the authorities inconsistent with the authorities, began with single pickets on Pushkinskaya Square. Then about 80 people left there and silently moved along the boulevards. During this walk, the police detained several more people. The remaining participants in the action reached clean ponds along the route of an inconsistent procession.
