Such a decision by the Moscow authority was announced to
the organiser of the rally that have to take place this Saturday
and introduce the so-called Churov List (Ed. The list includes
the names of people engaged in the parliamentary elections
fraud). It was planned to conduct the rally by Griboyedov
Monument at Chistiye Prudi.
Earlier the bureaucrats had refused to allow a rally at this
place under a pretext of paving the square.

However, YABLOKOs representative visited the site and made
photos confirming that there were no signs of repairs or paving.
This report was sent to the office of Mayor of Moscow Sergei
Sobyanin. After this a true motive of a refusal to give the
site under a rally was given: a ban by the Moscow Mayor to
conduct any rallies at Chistiye Prudi.
O am calling all the defenders of Article 31 of the Russian
Constitution [envisaging freedom of assembly] to come at Chistiye
Prudi on January 14, said YABLOKO leader Sergei Mitrokhin.
This will be real support to the fight for the freedom of
assembly, he added.
The rally will begin by Griboyedov Monument at 1 p.m. on
January 14. YABLOKO will present photographs, names and posts
of electoral commissions heads engaged in fraud. YABLOKO calls
all the citizens to come to the rally and give their facts
of election fraud with names of the falsifiers.
