Activist Sofia Sno writes on Twitter that Serenko is charged with posting “symbols of Navalny’s headquarters**” on social networks. The maximum penalty under this article is 15 days of arrest. Employees of the Tver police department do not allow defender Pyotr Khromov to see the detained activist for legal assistance.
Later, the head of the Agora human rights group, Pavel Chikov, said that the reason for initiating an administrative case was the publication on Serenko's Instagram with the symbol of «Smart Voting» on September 16 last year.
