The judge, who considered Shevtsov’s complaint, retired to the deliberation room, but then he returned and began to consider the case again. Employees of the EE center provided video materials according to Shevtsov by police officers of the 9th, but somehow they are mentioned in the protocol drawn up by the 7th.
November 14th
The police came to the headquarters of the Navalny election campaign and offered the headquarters of the headquarters Elena Lekishvili to appear to the police to draw up a protocol for calls to reach an inconsistent campaign on October 7. Lekiashvili called a convenient time for her, the police left, but soon they called back and said that at the appointed time it would not be possible to draw up a protocol. They promised to call back again.
November 18
Elena Lekiashvili received by mail a definition of the opening of administrative production in relation to her part 1 of Article 20.2 of the Code of Administrative Offenses (violation by the organizer of the public event of the procedure for its implementation), dated November 3.
According to Lekiashvili, before so tight activists in the city were not persecuted:
For Yaroslavl, this is generally an unheard of story, of course. I have been following everything that has been happening in political life here since 2011. Never detained anyone on any promotions. Urals, OMON and Rosgvardy on the streets of the city - Yaroslavl has not yet seen such. Probably, such a sharp reaction to a peaceful action is associated with the figure of the recently elected governor, former deputy minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs Dmitry Mironov.
