Klyuev, deputy head of the Public Order Enforcement Department of the Central Administrative District Directorate of the Russian Interior Ministry in Moscow — who stated that on February 24, 2014, at around 8:00 p.m., he was on Tverskaya Street in Moscow, where a group of about 150 citizens had gathered between buildings No. 2 and No. 4, chanting slogans related to the event. Navalny A.A. was among the participants in this public gathering and was also chanting slogans. Police officers repeatedly demanded that the unlawful actions cease and that the crowd disperse; this demand was also addressed to Navalny A.A., who did not comply. In addition, during his detention he resisted while being escorted to the police bus, waved his arms, attracted the attention of passersby, and had previously had the opportunity to leave the pedestrian area of the street.”* “The objective element of the offense предусмотренного under Article 19.3, Part 1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation is expressed in disobeying a lawful order of a police officer <...> Thus, the evidence collected in the case, which the court finds admissible and reliable, confirms that Navalny A.A., under the circumstances set out above, failed to comply with the lawful demands of police officers to cease actions disturbing public order.” “<...> Navalny actively resisted police officers <...>”. The detention order was issued by Judge Krivoruchko — a person included in the Magnitsky List (a sanctions list connected to the death of Sergei Magnitsky). P.S.
