A picketer on his way to Moscow was detained in Zheleznodorozhny
Vladimir Ionov was detained by a police patrol in the city of Zheleznodorozhny, Moscow Region, at the moment when he was heading to the station to go to Moscow for a traditional solo picket, which he holds on Manezhnaya Square on Saturdays. Ionov had folded posters with him, which the police, having delivered Ionov to the city administration, were going to seize for examination. But after several calls from disgruntled citizens, the police released the activist, returning the posters.
