Kerch.FM journalists were not allowed at public event

Kerch deputy mayor Oleksiy Milovanov hampered two journalists to work, noting that there was little space in the hall where the event was taking place. Journalists had to remind officials of their responsibility for impeding legal professional journalist activities. In response, Milovanov said: "I told you everything", and offered to complain to police.

Journalists managed to get inside the building only after long conversations with the guards and talks with press-service chief Olha Arhypenko.

According to the web-site, the guards at the entrance of the house of culture were also instructed not to let journalists of "Briz" TV-radio company. At the same time, journalists of other Kerch publications, groups of two to five people, freely passed into the building.
