A quarter of the detainees at a rally in St. Petersburg are minors. Judges urgently called to work on the night

Among the 548 detainees on June 12, during an unauthorized anti-corruption action on the Marse Field in St. Petersburg, about a quarter amounted to minors, Fontanka reports with reference to the data of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in St. Petersburg. Thus, we are talking about approximately 140 detained minors.

At the same time, it is also reported that some detained high school students spoke on duty in the police department, that on June 13, in Russian schools, they are passing a single state exam in a foreign language. However, this argument did not convince the police. “But sleep,” the schoolchildren heard in response.

Meanwhile, the judges of the Dzerzhinsky District Court of St. Petersburg were urgently called to work on Monday evening. The cases of protesters detained on the Marse Field will consider the entire judicial composition, adds Fontanka.

As lawyer Arkady Chaplygin told the publication, the processes over the rally participants on June 12 have been scheduled for tonight. By 21:00 it was planned to deliver the first detainees. “I arrived in court in advance. The bailiffs reported that all ten judges were called to work and are in office rooms,” the defender said.

By nine in the evening no one was delivered, Chaplygin left the court. According to Fontanka, by 22:30 the police still brought the first batch of protests - from the 29th police department of the Moscow district.

The cases of detainees will be considered by all judges in criminal and civil cases.

One of the auto -zaks with the detainees eated a "flying Dutchman"

According to Fontanka, one of the car carriers with the detainees on the Marse Field during the day was not accepted in any of the police branches that he came to. It is reported that the bus with 46 detainees left Marse Field for about 16 hours, and at the fourth hour of wandering on the ATS, the detainees nicknamed him "Flying Dutchman."

“We come to the department, the accompanying person comes back, returns with the refusal of the duty unit in the reception. Say, there are no places,” said one of the detainees named Eugene. He also added that minors were released from the bus.

Recall that among the detainees was the deputy of the Legislative Assembly of the Northern Capital Maxim Reznik. He later told reporters that he was kept in a car carrier for only 20 minutes, but managed to break glasses.

Before the rally, the police warned protesters about administrative responsibility, fines and the “possible use of physical strength” to the participants of the unauthorized action. The announcement was met by applause.

Earlier, the organizers of the rally in St. Petersburg were visited by employees of the Center for Combating Extremism. The chairman of the city department of Open Russia Andrei Pivovarov refused to accept the invitation to proceed to the department for trial over the alleged organization of riots. The same “visits” were inflicted on other organizers of the action - the head of the headquarters of Navalny Polina Kostyleva and the coordinator of the Vesna movement Nikolai Artemenko.
