Earlier, Navalny himself was detained at the Dimon Antimonal Street, along with a thousand other people.

The experimental opera O opera was carried out, their young trace lace, green-pre-presented, was procedurally roofed. They worked with the involvement of a specialist from the ECC of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, it seems that they were digging in electronics and removed fingerprints.
