March of dissent

The oppositional Russian organization The Other Russia have filed the necessary paperwork to Moscow officials to organize a demonstration on 6th May under the slogan “March of Dissent”. It remains to be seen whether the rally will be allowed to take place at the Griboyedov monument, in vicinity of Chistye Prudy metro station. Last time a similar event was announced on 3rd March 2008, it was stopped and 200 persons were detained by OMON.
