As reported by the "Mediazona"*, 495 people have been charged under the article of violating the procedure for holding mass actions, other 20 persons – under the article of organizing citizens' mass simultaneous presence in public places.
In some cases, law enforcers drew up protocols on the events that happened before the riots. Thus, on November 6, Djamilya Ismailova was sentenced to 20 hours of compulsory labour for her post placed on October 16 in a social network. The post was about a rally in Makhachkala in support of Palestine, which was stopped by law enforcers on the following day.
