The youngsters who held the flash-mob Free Hugs were
warned about the inadmissibility of such actions.
As said by one of them on the live air of ERB, the action was completely
innocent and apolitical. Its participants walked with posters “I can hug you
for free!” and hugged all volunteers. Elderly people hugged with them most
eagerly.
However, the local police fear that there is some political implication in the
action and therefore decided to ban such actions.
