Yulia Glimina* was arrested in Kazan for refusing to unlock her phone.
Former deputy mayor and opposition politician Yulia Glimina was arrested in Kazan immediately after arriving by train. Her lawyer Rim Sabirov told the "Mila La Hagana" channel the details: at the station, five employees of the "H" Center (the Center for Combating Extremism) met the politician.
According to the lawyer, they demanded Glimina's phone number, and explained that she was allegedly included in the list of "extremists and terrorists". Glimina refused to open the phone and hand it over for testing, after which she was arrested.
The administrative arrest protocol has not yet been drawn up: only the handover protocol and the personal search protocol have been written, Sabirov added.
