On March 23, an administrative protocol was drawn up against the coordinator of the Chelyabinsk headquarters, Alexei Navalny, Alexei Tabalov, under Part 1 of Art. 5.12 of the Code of Administrative Offenses (preparation of illegal campaigning). He told OVD-Info about this himself.

According to Tabalov, the report was drawn up by a district police officer who came to the headquarters. The activist refused to give explanations, citing Article 51 of the Constitution. According to the policeman, on January 25, Tabalov produced leaflets calling for the Voters' Strike on January 28, which was considered illegal campaigning.

According to the prosecutor's office, the website http://netprizyvu.ru/ , owned by Tabalov, does not contain a document regulating the processing of users' personal data, although it should be there.
