Unidentified persons damage car of "Golos" coordinator for Krasnodar Territory

This morning, David Kankiya, the coordinator of the "Golos" (Vote) movement in the Krasnodar Territory, discovered the tires of his personal car were cut. "All four tires were damaged," he told the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent.

Mr Kankiya has noted that he associates the incident with his active monitoring of elections in the Kuban (Krasnodar Territory).

"Today, I was about to go to the Territorial Election Commission (TEC) to submit my registration documents as a TEC member with an advisory vote. 16 days are left till the election," David Kankiya wrote on his Facebook page, posting a photo of his car's chopped tires.

He has added that he went to the TEC by public transport and still managed to submit his documents.

Let us remind you that earlier Krasnodar students told about their reluctance to go to the presidential election, since they saw no worthy one among the candidates. In their turn, Kuban activists reported violations committed on the eve of the presidential election.
