On the instructions of the leadership of the House of Representatives of the National Assembly of the Republic of Belarus, the Standing Committee on Work and Social Affairs of the PP considered the proposal of Viciebsk human rights activist Leonid Svetik regarding holding parliamentary hearings about the decree on "parasites". The result of this consideration was the refusal of the parliament to hold the proposed hearings.

Information agency "New Platform Innovation" ("Platform") appealed to the General Prosecutor's Office with a request to react to the facts of pressure, which, to the best of the organization's knowledge, are being rendered to the political prisoner Mikhail Zhamchuzhny by the administration of the colony No. 9 in Horki. This was announced at a press conference on August 15 in Minsk by the director of the Platform, Andrei Bondarenko.

In continuation of the topic of temporary detention isolators of the Vitebsk region, we quote the story of the co-chairman of the newly created BCD party, Pavel Sevyarynets. Pavel, as a former political prisoner, is well acquainted with the penitentiary system of Belarus. This year he was punished with 15 days of arrest after the "March of the non-parasites" in Vorša, which was held on March 12.

On June 14, a round table of the Public Platform "Dialogue" was held in Viciebsk. The meeting was organized by the Civil Accord movement, which appeared somehow suddenly out of nowhere, but has already held a similar meeting in Minsk.

On April 20, the Oktyabrsky District Court of Viciebsk passed a trial of another participant in an unauthorized action in the city. It is noteworthy that, accused of violating the administrative code, Lynsh Yuri Alexandrovich, is not a resident of Viciebsk, but came from Minsk and, he said, happened to be in the center of the city on the day of the action.
