As a result, the woman was detained. After that there was an administrative court (15 days of arrest under Part 2 of Article 19. 11 of the Administrative Code) through two reposts in Telegram. And then the woman was placed in a pre-trial detention center until trial.
It is known that Elena lived in Brest and went to Poland for shopping.
