Meeting in support of anarchists suspected of blowing up the "Neva Express" train dispersed

In the centre of Moscow, militiamen have dispersed a meeting in support of St-Petersburg anarchists detained on the case of blowing up the "Neva Express" train on August 13.

The action has started tonight in the Lubyanka Square. Half an hour later, militiamen dispersed the meeting and detained six persons, the "Gazeta.Ru" informs.

The detainees were presented charges of breaching the order of organizing meetings. The activists refuse to present their identity documents and render obedience to other commands of the militia until they are provided with the right for the defence, the "Echo Moskvy" Radio reports.

The "Caucasian Knot" reports that as a result of a search of the apartment of the second suspect of blowing up the "Neva Express" train - participant of the anarchical movement Denis Zelenyuk - employees of law enforcement bodies confiscated the incense in order to make examination of it.

At the same time, according to Alexander Maishev, a participant of the St-Petersburg League of Anarchists, according to a copy of the protocol of the search, conducted at the residence of Andrei Kalyonov, nothing prohibited was detected. Suspicion was caused by some "grey substance," which, according to Kalyonov's friend, was plasticine used for restoration works. The confiscated substance was also sent to examination.
