Krasnodar. OMON against students
The National Guard proved that the only law acting in the Kuban is an indication of the authorities.
The whole weekend in Krasnodar rains, not in the spring, the low sky is covered with gray clouds. One of the local anti -liberal activists even wrote: " God against the supporters of Navalny."
But, firstly, in Moscow and many other cities where protest promotions also passed, the weather was wonderful, and secondly, precipitation did not obscure for the townspeople who decided to protest against total corruption and lies.
As the Voice of the Kuban wrote , the City Hall of Krasnodar refused the head of the city headquarters of Alexei Navalny Miroslav Valkovich in holding a public event in the local Hyde Park-Chistyakovskaya grove. Like, another event was stated here “The goals and objectives of which do not coincide” with an appeal to pay attention to the anti-corruption investigation of the FBK in relation to Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev.
This does not coincide, it is still mildly said - on the site wearing in the rain there were two dozen activists of the “Young Guard of United Russia”, the youth organization of supporters of the ruling party, the chairman of which is precisely the overgrown palaces Dmitry Anatolyevich.

The fenced area with metal detectors and “titles” clinging to the edges - strong guys from the outskirts, who came to show the “liberals” where the crayfish winter, looked funny.
How many did not call the presenter to join the holiday of the "Young Guard", the audience did not increase.
But in another part of the Chistyakovsky grove - several hundred people gathered at the small scene opposite the fountain. These people, mostly young people, came to support the action of Alexei Navalny.
The guys, without hiding, discussed among themselves how tired of lies in the official media, hypocrisy of the authorities and voluntary-compulsory state-owned “patriotism”. There was also Miroslav Valkovich.
The organizers proposed not to hold a rally or procession, limiting themselves to a “free microphone” - everyone could approach and share their thoughts about the situation in the Krasnodar Territory and the country, attitude to the anti -corruption film.
But they did not let anyone speak. Smokes and firecrackers flew into the crowd, all around were covered with caustic clubs with the smell of gunpowder.
According to rumors, there were activists of the national liberation movement behind the provocation, the leader of which is the State Duma deputy from the same United Russia (the chairman of which is Medvedev) Evgeny Fedorov.
Eyewitnesses recorded a video from several angles, where young people in black jackets and leather gloves are clearly visible, throwing firecrackers under their feet gathered.
Instead of detaining provocateurs, the police began to drag the promoters to the bus as a command. About twenty of them, along with Valkovich, ended up in the Central Department of the Krasnodar police.
Among the detainees and minor students, but despite the requirement of the law, they were kept without the participation of representatives of the OPD and parents.
The first detentions only sprayed the participants who got home -made posters “Corruption steal the future” , “Dimon, we can not take off our vinyl?”, “He is not Dimon”, “The thief should sit in prison” and others.
The police tried to block the column at the exit from Chistyakovo's grove, but people went around them, being on the main street of Krasnodar - Red.
The column, in which there were about a thousand people, despite the provocations reached the theater square, where auto -zaks with riot police were waiting for them. The police, as during the protest campaign after the dishonest elections to the State Duma-2011, lined up with a chain, began to divide the column, pulling activists into the car.
Most of the detainees were in the police department of the Western District along Oktyabrskaya Street. According to eyewitnesses, the police delivered more than a hundred people there - mostly students.
Most of the detainees were released without drawing up protocols, but how many people are currently unknown in the police. It is known that the protocols under Art. 19.3 Code of Administrative Offenses were compiled on six participants in the action (“disobedience to the legal requirements of police officers”), although there were no real disobedience, as well as legal requirements. The courts on administrative protocols will begin tomorrow morning, before that part of the detainees remains in the areas. Most likely, they will be arrested for several days.
The fate of Miroslav Valkovich is still unknown.
The clear fright of the administration of the Krasnodar Territory is curious: as during the “Winter Revolution” of 2011, she was clearly scared. The regional media controlled by her completely said nothing of the promotion resonant for Krasnodar.
- The police in Krasnodar acted clearly with abuse of authority. The police received the team to do everything and even more, this is an unambiguous manifestation of fear, ”Professor Mikhail Savva commented on events, a member of the regional council of“ Open Russia ”.
The political scientist noted that new large social groups entered the streets, which first demonstrated dissatisfaction with power. First of all, we are talking about young people.
- In fact, if Russia had a different demographic structure, if there were more youth as a percentage of percentage, then the consequences of the action could be more unpredictable. Putin's regime saves the country's senile demographic structure, ”Savva explained. - Another important point - the protest was not concentrated only in the capitals, it passed in a huge number of cities. If the scale of the action grows at least an order of magnitude, no police will keep the situation under control and no atrocities will save. Such a prospect is created by the hands of the authorities itself, those provocations and the violence that she took into service. When a peaceful procession was brutally stopped, it was more like a fairy tale Chipolino.
The interlocutor emphasized that the authorities were hoping to intimidate the youth with gesture measures, striking the most active to keep the rest in fear.
“But this is a big mistake.” The overwhelming part of the young people who have passed through the auto -zaks are not frightened, but only hardened, ”Mikhail Savva summed up.
