Two Georgian people were arrested for the participation of protest demonstrations in Moscow.

Online portal Kasparov.ru reported that Judge Maria Moskalenko is discussing the cases on the detainees at the Basman Court. They were sentenced to 10-15 day administrative imprisonment.

According to the Kasparov.ru’s correspondent several buses full of detainees are standing near the court building. According to him, the 10-15 day administrative imprisonments were already imposed on Sergey Vlasov, Pavle Paekhomenko, Vitali Apakidze, Giorgi Jalagonia and Egor Sargisyan.
