The premises of the Moscow campaign headquarters Alexei Navalny were captured by security forces. This was announced on his FB page by the leader of the capital's department of the Party of Progress Nikolai Lyaskin.
Visiters cut the locks on the door of the headquarters. Outside, there are about a dozen operatives on the street. According to the guard guard, the headquarters conducts "investigative actions". Oppositionists are not allowed inside.
The attendant, who remained at the headquarters at night, does not answer calls, although his cell phone is turned on.
On Twitter, Lyaskin specified that the security forces came to the headquarters at about 7 in the morning. During this time, they installed bars on the windows.
The opposition called the police. The police reported that they knew about what was happening. On call, they did not come.
The functionary associated the security forces with the “propaganda subbotnik”, which the headquarters planned to conduct on July 8.
Meanwhile, earlier on Thursday, a member of the Public Chamber, Shot Gorgadze, wrote that in Moscow in the morning searches were held on the "case of March 26". During the searches, according to the pro -Khrevtsy, "several tens of thousands of copies of Chernukhi agina were seized for autumn elections and products with signs of extremism."
However, after 13 hours, Interfax announced with reference to the deputy chief of the threat of the capital's OP Zamoskvorechye Evgenia Tikhomirov that the search is not related to the activities of the headquarters, but is carried out in the arbitrariness case (Article 330 of the Criminal Code). According to the security officer, the police received applications for violation by the owner of the building - the company "Balchug Estit" - the terms of the lease agreements. Applications were submitted by the tenant - the company "Paritite MG" - as well as the subleases.
As Navalny, as the Subaredor, the security forces have no complaints, he assured Tikhomirov. In the building, he added, now only Chopovtsy are located - the police are left there. The activist, who was on duty at the headquarters at night, as follows from the explanation of the security forces, was taken to the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the Central District of Moscow. There were also brought things and documents seized in the room.
On the eve of the searches were held in the Novosibirsk and Oryol headquarters of Navalny . In both cities, the security forces seized all the agitation stored in the premises.
