Coordinator of miners' protest reports being detained in Zverevo

Valery Dyakonov, a coordinator of the protest actions held by Rostov miners, has informed the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent that he was detained by policemen and is being taken to Gukovo.

According to Valery Dyakonov, the policemen came to his house and "took him away."

Later, the activist reported being taken to Gukovo.

Let us remind you that in Gukovo, miners demand to cover the wage arrears, and starting from September 4, they are on march to Rostov-on-Don.

In groups of two persons, they pass some sections of the way, and on the other day they are replaced by new participants of the protest action.

On September 15, in Gukovo, policemen detained two miners on protest holding solo pickets. Besides, Tatiana Avachova, a coordinator of the Gukovo miners' protest actions, has been detained in the city centre.
