In total, the police detained more than 60 local residents, including minors, reports OVD-Info . All of them were taken to the Orekhovo-Borisovo South police department, the Moskvorechye-Saburovo police department and the Nagatino-Sadovniki police department. In some of them, the “Fortress” plan was announced and lawyers are not allowed to see the detainees.

Administrative reports were drawn up against all the protesters under the article on disobedience to police officers (Article 19.3 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation) - this is an arrest article. After the protocols were drawn up, the detainees were released from the police.

At the Moskvorechye railway platform, where they are going to build the South-East Chord on the site of a nuclear repository, the police sprayed a gas spray and began to detain protesters. This was reported on the telegram channel by the mundep Pechatnikov Sergei Vlasov.

“There was a fight with the police. Young people were pushed away from the fence and one offered resistance. During his arrest, a hitch took place and the police sprayed a gas canister,” he writes.

Later, the mundep spoke about his detention. There are 16 people with him in the paddy wagon. Aleksey Pryanishnikov, coordinator of the Human Rights Defenders of the Postcard, specified to Novaya Gazeta that the detainees were being taken to the Moskvorechye police station. A lawyer is already visiting them.

Earlier on March 19, police detained activist Svetlana Trushkina. As a result, she was released without a protocol being drawn up. For several months now, environmental activists have been on duty around the clock near the nuclear waste disposal site of the polymetal plant and monitor the level of radiation. In March, the owner of the gazelle in which they are on duty was searched because of broken radiation sensors of the Radon company, which is engaged in the removal of radioactive waste from the construction site.
