The guitarist of the band «Stoptime» Alexander Orlov, who was supposed to be released after 12 days of administrative arrest, was detained again at the detention center in St. Petersburg. «Bumaga»* reports that the musician was taken to the 76th police department, where he was informed about a new administrative protocol under the article on «discrediting» the army, but the document itself was not presented.
Orlov fully served his 12-day administrative arrest under the article on organizing a rally for a street concert with the performance of songs by «foreign agents» at Vosstaniya Square.
Vocalist Diana Loginova and drummer Vlad Leontiev remain under arrest: the court sentenced them to one more day. They are supposed to be released tomorrow. Tomorrow, the second administrative case against Loginova, under the article on «discrediting» the army, will also be considered.
Today it became known that one of the two protocols on «discrediting» the army against Loginova was sent back to the police, explained by the need to eliminate «obstacles to its consideration by the court».
The musicians of the band «Stoptime» were detained in St. Petersburg for performing songs by «foreign agents».
