On July 21 Judge Olga Borovkova during the hearings of Artur
Grokhovsky’s case watched the video of detention of Artur
Grokhovsky, Advisor to YABLOKO’s Chairman. Grokhovsky is accused
of “disobeying a lawful demand” of the police during the action
against broadening of secret services proxies held by the
State Duma on July 9. Grokhovsky is facing admoinsitrative
arrest up to 15 days.
Policemen who had detained Grokhovsky and were summoned to
the court did not come. The judge listened to Grokhovsky’s
evidence. According to Grokhovsky, the policemen neither had
given their names nor had explained their actions and had
neglected his demand to show their police identity cards.
The next meeting will take place on July 22.
