UPDATE on the detained squatters in St Petersburg
Submitted by Анонимный on 7 February, 2013 - 00:23
For background please see:
All but one of the activists have been released on condition they appear in court to be charged with an administrative offence. This is a less serious offence and normally results in a formal warning or a fine.
The last squatter, whom the St Petersburg Investigative Committee has reported to be a 20-year old college student from Tajikistan, has been remanded for two months in St Petersburg’s notorious Kresty prison, suspected of violence against a police officer.
Details about fundraising for his defence will be posted shortly.
