Before Khimki's prosecution was, but it was not so clear-cut and with such intensity.Yes, someone is detained, summoned to the meeting, but such general scale that did not matter, now thwarted a number of activities - concerts. For example, this weekend was supposed to take place a concert in Moscow. Concerts exclusively charitable, and money had to go to the orphanages. After Khimkinskiy events was a football tournament in Podolsk. The event was not drunk and violent people. Nevertheless, a car pulled up riot police, and all were carried out at the nearest railway station.Most likely, a team of senior management, which, they say, you dare to rebel and to hold any shares in Khimki, if any of your shares, tournaments, concerts will not be. People may begin as a problem in the institute, and at work.
