Employees of the Anti-Corruption Foundation (FBK), detained on March 26 at the office, were left overnight at the police department. This was reported to Meduza by one of the detainees.
The FBK office was searched.
Earlier it became known that until the morning of March 27, the founder of the FBK, Alexei Navalny, would remain in the police department. He was detained in the center of Moscow when he went to a rally against corruption.
FBK employees conducted an Internet broadcast about the mass protests against corruption that took place in Russia on March 26. Among those detained is the head of the election headquarters of Alexei Navalny, Leonid Volkov, who is suspected of extremism.
Mass actions against corruption, the reason for which was the investigation of the FBK about the "secret empire" of Dmitry Medvedev, took place in dozens of Russian cities.
According to OVD -Info, more than 880 people were detained in Moscow for protests against corruption. Some of them were released from the police departments. Administrative protocols are drawn up against the detainees on violating the procedure for holding rallies and disobeying the orders of police officers.
