The latter, according to the court, properly forbade the meeting in the bath, as the organizer of the meeting did not provide the service contract of the "mass action", signed with utilities, police and medics.

After that, write a report that clearly familiar to them Levinau P.I., which they can confidently identify a person, in the men's section and the bath did not appear any meetings not held.

Now think not inform whether the power to hold a meeting in one of the public toilets of the city...
