The State Duma demanded clarifications from the Ministry of the Interior about the mass arrests of minors in Moscow.
After the attacks on Kitai-Gorod, the State Duma Committee for the Protection of the Family, Fatherhood, Maternity and Childhood Issues asked the Ministry of the Interior for information about the circumstances of the youth's arrest. Deputy Nina Ustanina asked to identify the targets of the attacks and the reasons for drawing up protocols.
In addition, Ustinina demanded that reports of the use of force against detainees be reviewed and the actions of law enforcement officers be evaluated. The deputy also drew attention to the fact that it is difficult for parents of arrested teenagers to access police departments.
On the evening of November 7, several hundred people, including teenagers, were detained in the Kiti-Gorod area. According to media reports, the police checked the documents of the school students and found out if they drank alcohol. Many teenagers came to the classes where they spent several hours. Their parents, apparently, could not take the minors home.
