rubl Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 a plot to cause a public disturbance during the major festivities - BIKE FOR DEMOCRACY? Since no one has applied for approval to organise such event it would be a public disturbance indeed. BTW you're getting a bit frivolous distorting the 'Bike for Dad' event.

rubl Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 (edited) Since no one else seems to care (or notice?) let me ask the question. Why did the Ministry of Defence detain suspects? Why was such not done by the police with or without assistance of military personel? Edited November 24, 2015 by rubl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
