Makhachkala: law enforcers detain picketer

In Makhachkala, Ibragim Parkuev, a local resident, has been detained, after he came out with a poster in which he congratulated Alexei Navalny* on his birthday.

On June 4, Alexei Navalny* turned 47; in Russian cities, law enforcers detained activists at solidarity rallies with the convicted politician. In Volgograd, Anna Semionova, a local resident, was brought to the police station after she came out with a poster "You are not alone. Happy birthday!"

Ibragim Parkuev went to the picket with a poster "Happy birthday, Alexei!" the "OVD-info"** project has reported.

Today, the residents of Volgograd, sympathetic to Navalny*, have held a secret "protest walk" today. They explained the refusal from open solidarity actions by the fear of criminal prosecution.

*Navalny's offices are recognized as extremist organizations and banned in Russia. Alexei Navalny is a founder of the Anti-Corruption Foundation (known as FBK), an NCO that is included by the Russian Ministry of Justice (MoJ) into the register of NCOs performing functions of a foreign agent. The NCO is also recognized by a court as extremist and banned in the territory of Russia.

  • Compensation decrease for illegal prosecution violates rights of KBR resident

    The court ruling, which awarded Madin Gubzhokov compensation of 30,000 roubles for unlawful criminal prosecution, is incomparable with the moral harm caused by the actions of Azamat Kyaov, a former law enforcer. The amount is ridiculous and should be appealed against, lawyers and human rights defenders have stated.
