On 6 September several dozens of Krishna believers gathered in the cafeteria of the “Amkador” factory in Hikala Street for traditional celebration. They wanted to hand out traditional gifts to passers by. Policemen from Savetski Borough Department of Internal Affairs dispersed them. There were also persons in plain clothes who refused to show their documents. The Hinduists obeyed to the police who threatened to detain them due to absence of official permission for the assembly. Now they intend to sue the police.
