Then only three detainees were reported - 25 -year -old Ruslan Kostylenkov from the city of Khotkovo near Sergiev Posad, Maria Lapina and a minor Anna Pavlikova , who would only be 18 years old at the end of March. During the search, a minor activist was forced to lie on the floor, her father was detained with her.

The detainees after the searches were taken to the Kuntsevsky intercid department of the TFR.
In the photo with a search, published related to the security forces of the Kremlin laundry Telegram channel, agitation was depicted by agitation to the “voter strike”, a leaflet with the “New Greatness” program and a T-shirt with anarchist symbols. Later, the Kremlin laundress distributed a video with a grateful testimony of Kostylenkov. The detainee, choked, pronounces the memorized text, mentioning in particular the plans of "organizing the tribunal over members of the ruling elite" and "training in the shooting and throwing of Molotov cocktails."
In the next two days, the Dorogomilovsky District Court of Moscow arrested for two months nine members of the "new greatness". According to information on the website of the capital’s ships, in addition to Kostylenkov and Pavlikova, these are Sergey Gavrilov , Peter Karamzin , Vyacheslav Kryukov , Pavel Rebrovsky , 19-year-old Maria Dubovik, D. Poletaev and M. Roshchin.

Meanwhile, there is no information about the arrest of Lapina. It can be assumed that this is a pseudonym Dubovik. If this is true, then the date of birth indicated on the VK page of the activist does not correspond to the real one. It follows from the lapina profile that she is 23 years old.

This suggests that some of the defendants were detained either immediately after the opening of the case on the 13th, or even another 12th-before its excitement.
