Krufenko and Mzler talked about the arrest: the first had his equipment confiscated, the second says he was suffocated and demands a password, activists told a RusNews reporter about it. "Officers of the Investigative Committee came to me, conducted a search and opened a criminal case under Part 1 of Article 280.3 of the Criminal Law because of my speech at the rally on May 1. I am accused of repeated "defamation" of the Russian army, so the case is already criminal. And right now I have one unclosed administrative article for telephone equipment. Confiscated," said Sergey Krupenko. Oleg Metzler is a witness in the case. According to him, at around 11:30 the policemen started breaking into his door and threatened to break down the door. "I opened the door for them and they broke in. When I started demanding to be given the right to call a lawyer, they handcuffed me, threw me to the floor, started twisting my arms and legs and pressed my spine with their knee. Then they said what they wanted to get. Not remembering the password, I was in a panic. After that they decided to strangle me," Metzler said. Then they asked him for his computer password. When he said that he did not remember him, one of the security forces pinched his mouth and nose three times: he could not breathe for several seconds to a minute. There were six people in the apartment: two masked, two without masks and two witnesses. A smartphone, two SSD drives, three hard drives and flash cards were confiscated from Mazler. The two activists previously organized an event in honor of the anniversary of the October Revolution. Metzler tried to get permission to hold the meeting in Hyde Park, but it turned out that all such sites in the city were booked between 7 a.m. and 10 p.m. until the end of November.
