Participants of the picket in support of Furgal were detained on Manezhnaya Square

On Manezhnaya Square, the police detained defrauded shareholders Zoya and Alexander Bakatov. This was reported by the telegram channel “Real View”.

Zoya Bakatova stood in a single picket with a poster “I/We are Sergei Furgal.” The police detained her and took her to a paddy wagon. When Alexander tried to take her poster on the way there, the security forces detained him too.

The detainees will presumably be taken to the Kitay-Gorod police station.

14:25 Police detained Siberian activist Svetlana Hagadayeva during a picket against deforestation on Lake Baikal. She stood with a poster “Hands off Baikal,” Tatyana Vishnevetskaya told OVD-Info.

17:25 Svetlana Khagadayeva is charged with violating the rules of conduct during the “high alert” regime (Article 20.6.1 of the Administrative Code). She herself told OVD-Info about this.

18:13 Khagadayeva was released from the department with a report. According to her, Zoya and Alexander Bakatov were previously released, probably with a report under the same article.

Previously, it was erroneously stated that the action took place on Red Square.

• Since July 11, residents of the Khabarovsk Territory have been holding actions in support of Governor Sergei Furgal, who was arrested on suspicion of organizing murders. The procession on July 11 through the streets of Khabarovsk to the building of the regional government, according to various estimates, gathered from 5 to 35 thousand people. The police did not interfere with the protesters, and there were no arrests.
• The then-current governor of the Khabarovsk Territory, Sergei Furgal, was detained on July 9 by FSB officers on suspicion of involvement in a number of contract killings. He was taken to Moscow, where, by decision of the Basmanny District Court of Moscow, he was placed in custody until September 9. On July 16, the Moscow City Court rejected the appeal of Furgal’s defense and recognized this decision as legal. On July 20, President Vladimir Putin signed a decree on Furgal’s resignation from the post of governor and appointed Furgal’s fellow party member in the LDPR, Mikhail Degtyarev, to this post as interim, Mediazona reported .
