Gay Pride participants in Moscow detained by OMON squads
16 May 2009

Photo: participants being detainedMilitia have detained 20-40 members of Moscow's Gay Pride vetoed by Russian capital's authorities. The detainment actions made by OMON took place on Vorobyevy Gory at noon Moscow time. Participants of the Gay Pride held white pinks and posters "Equal rights without any compromise", "Homophobia is a shame for the State".

At the same time on Pushkin Square in the centre of Moscow - place where Gay Pride's organizers earlier intended to hold the action - the militia, journalists and Orthodox church banner holders were on stand-by alert. The Moscow's police there tried to break up homophobes' demonstration that was shouting gay hate slogans: "Put gays into jail!", "Death to fags" etc.
