After the end of the hearing of the Armiansk City Court on the criminal case against the leader of the Crimean Tatars Mustafa Dzhemilev, civil journalist of Crimean Solidarity Ibrish Nazlymov put a tripod camera not far from the court building to record video comments of the lawyer Nikolay Polozov on this criminal case. At that time, he was surrounded by police officers and several men in plain clothes. One of them, as it turned out later, the head of the Department of Internal Affairs of Armiansk Anatoly Muravlev, said that there are counter-terrorism exercises in the city, in connection with which it is prohibited to take photos and videos in public places.
