- trhway 6y agotldr in English: Police obtained from providers the cell phone connection data at the time and place of the illegal protests. Police also obtained from "VKontakte" (Russian Facebook) the phone numbers of the users who visited the page calling for the protests. Now they request the first deputy of Russian Criminal Investigative Agency for help in determining those persons who both visited the page and was at/near the protests.
- IfOnlyYouKnew 6y agoTh data may be illegal, the protests weren’t. At least not to any democratic standards.
- trhway 6y agoUnfortunately the protests are illegal according to the Russian law. This is why all these criminal cases there. Even more - they are investigated by the "investigators of especially important cases". > At least not to any democratic standards. Well, that unfortunately doesn't save the participants from being brutalized by police, charged and punished with some getting real prison time (for example if it is the 3rd time of being arrested at illegal protests)
