Residents of Botun, who have been blocking roads as a form of protest against the construction of a wastewater treatment plant, attempted to prevent the CDM team from filming the unregistered blockage on January 17.

Those present claimed that the reason for this was that CDM had filmed a child, which, according to the editorial office, is not true. Despite the fact that the event was taking place on a public area, some of the Botun residents insisted that journalists were not allowed to film them. At one point, they stated, “This is Zeta territory.”
