“This is a disgusting film, which is larded with lies,” he said. “Its
aim was twofold: to smear those who join mass protests and at the same time
to frighten the people who organise them.”
Police sources said that 94 people were arrested at Ostankino. Mr Nemtsov, Mr
Udaltsov and others were released after being taken to police stations and
will be most likely punished with fines.
NTV has not responded to the criticism and announced provocatively on Friday
that “Anatony of Protest” would be shown a second time on Sunday
evening.
Vladimir Burmatov, an MP from Putin’s United Russia who featured in the film,
called the reaction to it “collective hysteria”.
