Limonov’s Jailing Protested

The banned National Bolshevik Party said Monday that it was holding “one-man pickets” to protest the jailing of leader Eduard Limonov for 10 days.

Limonov was jailed for organizing an unsanctioned rally in central Moscow on Oct. 31 to demand their constitutional right of assembly and resisting arrest. City authorities banned the rally, and police detained activists as they arrived. Limonov was sentenced and jailed last week and will be released Nov. 22.
