According to RIA Novosti, among the detainees are the head of the Alliance of Doctors * Anastasia Vasilyeva and CNN journalists.

It is noted that the police called on those gathered near the colony to disperse, as they interfere with the work of the special institution and the passage of vehicles.

Vasilyeva did not fulfill these requirements, after which she was asked to leave the road, was taken to the side of the road and taken to a police van.

The police then took the CNN operator to the paddy wagon.

The correspondent of the TV channel Matthew Chance drew the attention of the police to the fact that they had taken the media representative.

The police asked if they had press cards, and when it turned out that there were no press cards, Chance was also asked to go to the paddy wagon.

Both were not wearing vests with the word "Press" on them.

The press service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Vladimir region told RIA Novosti that they do not have information about the detainees and the reasons for detention at the colony in Pokrov, where Alexei Navalny is serving his sentence.

* "Alliance of Doctors" is included in the register of NPOs performing the functions of a foreign agent by the decision of the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation dated 03.03.2021.
