Sochi activist summoned to police

Olesya Christosenko, an activist of the Navalny's office, has been questioned concerning the opposition activities and the events of October 7. She is re-summoned to the police for today.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that on October 7, in Sochi, five out of seven persons who held solo pickets in support of Navalny were detained. Administrative protocols were drawn up against them.

Olesya Christosenko was summoned to the police as a witness. On October 12, she came to the police station. According to her, she was questioned about the activities at the Navalny's office and the events of October 7, including the questions about who and where held unsanctioned actions in the city. The activist was about to leave, but, according to her, the Police Major who questioned her, tried to detain her.

"When I demanded from him to tell me if I was detained and on what grounds, he did not argue and wrote me the second letter summoning me to the police for tomorrow. Meanwhile, this time, he replaced the word of 'interrogation' with 'questioning'," Olesya Christosenko told the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent.
