riot police stormed dacha S. Muromtseva. Dozens of its defenders detained
 
At half past six in the morning on 5-th radial streets began to tighten police. They cordoned off the area giving S. Muromtseva, which advocates the historic Moscow demanded to recognize the object of cultural heritage, and the officials were sentenced to demolition. There were bulldozers. No documents the demolition of no one submitted.
Cottages to destruction tried to prevent its residents, who for many years been the guardians and creators of this house-museum and to support their local residents.

They climbed to the second floor of the building and occupied it defense, hoping that together with the people will not demolish the house. People have resorted to extreme means of protection - promised that jump off the roof in the event of demolition.

Then the riot police went on the attack.

As told to "Interfax" and "Echo of Moscow" bystanders Yuri Polotnyuk and Kirill Boldyrev, the police acted "unprecedentedly tough." People were taken out from the second floor: grabbed, beaten, one woman dropped from the second floor, broke the camera journalist of Russia ".

Detained, according to various sources, from 10 to 50 people who were taken to the ATM area Biryulyovo-East.

Next Polotnyuk, who was also brutally shoved into a police car and taken to ATS, said that no records of the detention was not drafted. People tried to leave, but at the checkpoint stopped them and asked to return. At the same time to the journalists in the ATS Biryulyovo-East meet, because no one was detained.

Normal militia scheme - to act, leaving no trace and document their outrage.

This is not the first and - alas - probably not the last case, when the Moscow authorities for the sake of construction companies to destroy the memorial places of historical Moscow.

Cottage of the first speaker of the State Duma of the tsarist empire S. Muromtseva, was known not only for the fact that there was drafted the first Constitution of Russia. In this house in the early XIX century, visited and worked as Ivan Bunin, and in 1970-1980s years - artist Konstantin Vasiliev and writer Benedict Erofeev.

In the house for many years lived several families of enthusiasts, create a museum suburban Tsaritsyno, repairing a house on their own. It flowed artistic life of Moscow, regularly held "Erofeevskie reading, which met in Moscow poets, writers, directors and actors, literary critics.

Authorities began the resettlement of families living in this house, and this meant that he was doomed.

Representatives of the social movement "Arhnadzor" in the last year have applied to the Moscow Committee for Cultural Heritage, which substantiated the need to assign the memorial site of Garden Muromtseva attraction of Moscow, an object of cultural heritage. The period of consideration of that statement, at least until 14 January this year, the cottage could not endure.

But in the first days of January this year, giving burned in an arson attack. But it was still possible to recover, and Pogorel'tsev with children continued to live in barracks near his polusgorevshim home.

But the officials, intending to give this tidbit under construction, decided to pursue the case and made today a police sting operation, if it were not citizens, and terrorists.

So once again people have shown who really, not by the Constitution is the source of power in Russia.

Marat Gelman, an outspoken opponent of mayoral General Plan, made a sharp criticism: "The general plan is bad, but it is taken for three reasons. First - this is greed, which is pushing for a crime, the second - this is cowardice, which leads to cover a crime General Plan. Third - it's indifference, which allows you to not think about consequences. For us, the center of Moscow - this is love. And for Luzhkov - vegetable garden bed, with whom he reap ".

Interest is very sick! Yesterday's plein to Sergiev Posad has brought me into a deep depression. The town is buried in the mud. A central part around the monastery is surrounded by brick "palace" interspersed with poluzabroshennymi shanties. Bullying in the middle of piles of plastic bottles towers hotel "Aristocrat". And this work was written a week ago in Hotkovo. To not so sad.
