On February26, in Kirov, five unidentified persons broke into the apartment of the leader of the Kirov Department of the United Civil Front (OGF) Denis Shadrin, and conducted a search. It is believed to be the work of the authorities. Apparently, they were attempting to end protest actions in Kirov on the eve of March 11 city elections, notes the press- service of local OGF.
At about noon, the men rang the door of Shadrin's apartment, pretending to be gas service workers. When Shadrin opened the door, four people wearing camouflage and one in civilian clothing entered the apartment. One said he was called Sergey and, producing no documents, stated that according to information on Shadrin's apartment, he had weapons and extremist literature. Then, without producing a warrant and without gettting permission, the men searched the apartment. Shadrin was told to end his oppositional activity, in particular, the organization of pickets. After taking away a computer, three OGF flags, posters and leaflets from protest actions, and literature from different public organizations, the unidentified intruders left.
