Vice-governor of the Kemerovo region Sergey Tsivilev knelt before the participants of the rally, which is currently taking place in the central square of the capital of the region. The number of protesters according to various sources is from 4 to 5 thousand people.
Citizens want to punish the perpetrators of the tragedy in the shopping center "Winter Cherry" and stop hiding information about the real number of victims and the causes of the tragedy.
"I would like to ask you to forgive me," said Tsivilev and knelt down on his knees.
Earlier, the vice-governor accused the organizer of the rally, who lost his wife, sister and three daughters in the fire, in the PR on the mountain. And the governor of the Kemerovo region Aman Tuleyev reported to Vladimir Putin about the "200 buzoters" who went to the rally.
