Additional information:

The Zheleznodorozhny District Court of Barnaul fined civil activist Maria Ponomarenko RUB 75,000 for repeated violation of the rules of public events. Ponomarenko staged an individual picket in the centre of Barnaul on December 12, the Russian Constitution Day. Ponomarenko told Siberia.Realities that she was taken away by ambulance, so the judge passed the verdict without the activist's presence.
