## Key points

- Magomed Gasanov received a 13-day jail sentence.
- Police accused him of refusing orders during his detention.
- Links between 12 court reports and the roundup remain unclear.

## Summary

A Moscow court has sentenced 21-year-old Magomed Gasanov to 13 days in jail for allegedly disobeying police, after his arrest during a reported police roundup in the Kitay-Gorod neighbourhood. The case matters amid reports that hundreds of teenagers and young adults were detained in the area.

Police alleged Gasanov refused to show his passport or enter a police van. He partly admitted guilt but said he had not refused to comply and had not immediately understood what was happening. Courts in two districts received 12 police reports on 9 November alleging petty hooliganism or disobedience; it is unclear whether those cases relate to the roundup.
