"Operational measures were taken, but everything was held within the legal framework," - MIA spokeswoman Volha Chamadanava said about the incident.

According to eyewitnesses, in the afternoon of July 15, masked officers broke the glass in a Lexus and "pulled three people out of it" in Arlouskaya Street after the shooting. Another witness of the incident asked the officers which bodies they represented and they showed him the certificates of the special police unit "Almaz". Later, it was reported that the policemen allegedly made a mistake and detained the wrong people.

The MIA spokeswoman could not say whether there had been any post-mortem of the Almaz representatives' actions in Arlouskaya Street. "I don't know about it. Nobody has been fired," - Volha Chamadanava said.
