As APA reports, teenager Yevgeni Nikitin is also detained alongside him. The teenagers, both residents of Obininsk province of Moscow, were imprisoned because of their support to protest action of Automobile plant named after Gorki.

The protest action held on January 25 didn't remain without any result. The leadership of the plant has liquidated its decision on discharging 40 thousand employees from the work. But the teenagers are still kept in custody.

Associates of the law enforcement organs regularly "visit" them, in case if not get respond to the questions asked, they beat the teenagers. Rza Mammadov is beaten more because of being Azerbaijanian.
