Additional information:

Police officers checked the documents of civilian journalist Amar Abdulgaziyev, who was filming near the building of the Crimean Garrison Military Court. Some time later, he was detained, forcibly put in a car, and taken to the police station, where the police tried to take photos of him and film him. The formal reason for the detention was smoking in a wrong place, but this offense with the documents does not imply detention and taking to the police station.
