The head of the "Alliance of teachers" was detained in St. Petersburg

After a search in connection with the blocking of roads at rallies on January 23 in St. Petersburg, the head of the Alliance of Teachers, Daniel Ken, was detained. His brother said that he was "administratively detained for questioning".

"Seized media, printed materials. The computer was not seized only because it had already been seized last time", - the detainee's brother wrote on Twitter and added that the search was carried out on Daniel Ken's birthday.

This is the fourth search that Ken has undergone in the road blocking case. For the first time - on February 6 - operatives came with searches at thirty addresses.

The criminal case was opened in January 2021. The Interior Ministry reported that unknown persons obstructed the movement of cars and pedestrians in the center of St. Petersburg during a rally in support of opposition leader Alexei Navalny. Similar cases were opened in Moscow and Vladivostok.
