after they finished a raid of his flat, in Moscow, Russia on Monday.
Investigators and police officers, some with machine guns, stormed the
homes of several Russian opposition leaders on 11 June, one day ahead of
a planned mass rally by opponents of President Vladimir Putin. The
so-called 'March of Millions' opposition rally, which was permitted by
the city authorities, is to take place in Moscow on the 'Day of Russia'
celebrated on June 12.
