Reports have begun to be drawn up against the detainees in St. Petersburg, reported OVD-Info Alla Voiskaya and public defender from OVD-Info Vladimir Vasilenko, who is helping the detainees in OP No. 28.

July 10 00:10 Anton Cherepov and Evgeniy Balanov left the department. Protocols were drawn up against them under Article 8.6.1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of St. Petersburg.
Protocols are drawn up against those detained in OP No. 76 under the article on violation of the rules of participation in a public event (Part 5 of Article 20.2 of the Administrative Code), Alla Voiskaya said in a conversation with OVD-Info.
The police considered that the single pickets carried out by Voiskaya and Samokhaeva were a mass event.
The police insisted on fingerprinting Voiskaya and Samokhaeva and told the detainees that this was mandatory so that they “stayed in the base.” The police also want to take photographs of detainees.
The law (clause “g” of Article 9 of the Federal Law “On Mandatory Fingerprint Registration”) provides for strictly defined cases when fingerprinting is mandatory. The commission of an administrative offense or detention itself is not grounds for mandatory fingerprinting.
Fingerprinting is required if a person is suspected of committing a crime or if the court has placed him under administrative arrest.
Another circumstance when fingerprinting is mandatory is for those who have committed an administrative offense, if it is impossible to establish their identity.
None of these conditions are suitable for the detention of Voiskaya and Samokhaeva.
Ekaterina Samokhaeva was released from OP No. 76 with a report on an administrative violation. Samokhaeva herself reported this.
10 July 00:10 She said that she refused fingerprinting, but agreed to be photographed. After that she was released.
Voyskaya refuses to undergo fingerprinting and be photographed, because of this the police will not let her leave the OP. The public defender from OVD-Info, Vladimir Vasilenko, went to help the detainee.
All detainees were released from OP No. 28 and OP No. 76 in St. Petersburg. Detainee Alla Voiskaya and public defender Vladimir Vasilenko reported this to OVD-Info.
1:00 As a result, protocols were drawn up against all detainees under the article on violation of requirements aimed at ensuring a high-alert regime (Article 8.6.1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of St. Petersburg).
The detained Alla Voiskaya was nevertheless released from the police department without fingerprinting or photographing.
Those in the 28th police department deny that a person named Vadim Nazarov was with them, and assume that one of them, probably Ekaterina Nazarova, was recorded as such by mistake. According to the MBKh Media source, the detainee named Vadim Nazarov was later replaced by Sergei Diment.
