The woman works as a seller in a shop and takes her child to a sports class of the children’s center in Constitution street. “I was walking up and down the street with my slogan during my lunch break trying to draw public attention to the problem of destruction of our city by ignorant and corrupt officials”, Marina Sokolova said to the “Caucasian Knot” correspondent.

Resident of Sochi Galina Markova said that the people living in the neighbouring houses were ready to picket the Administration every day because, according to Markova, they “pay absolutely no attention to the citizens’ demands”.
