On March 31, Moscow opposition activists held their traditional demonstration on the Triumfalnaya Square in support of Article 31 of the Russian Constitution (freedom of assembly). A similar demonstration was held in St. Petersburg. Both demonstrations were prohibited by the authorities and dispersed by the police. Some 150 activists were arrested. At the same time another Moscow opposition group held an alternative demonstration at the nearby Pushkin square, which was allowed by the authorities. http://www.lenta.ru/news/2011/03/31/vojna/ http://drugoi.livejournal.com/3525244.html (Moscow, video) http://grani-tv.ru/entries/1689/ (St Petersburg, video)
