who had obtained gratuitous flats in 2011-2012. Such information
should be provided in accordance with the law on "On
the provision of access to information on activities of state
bodies and local self-governments.
YABLOKO sent the inquiry to the Moscow Government as early
as on May 25. The answer received from the officials ran that
the city annually allocated housing to the Interior Ministry,
however, distribution of the flats was carried out by the
ministry.
In late May, mass media reported that the Moscow government
awarded gratuitous flats to the police officers who had allegedly
suffered during clashes with protesters at the "March
of Millions" on May 6.
