The detained activists in Vitebsk BCD Stanislaus Lavrenov and Alexei Kischuk accused of disorderly conduct - "foul language." The detention took place around 11 am, but the trial of the detainees have not been. Both placed in the detention center for at least the next night. Will the Court tomorrow, the guys do not speak well.
Traffic police stopped the car, driven by Stanislav Lavrenov, but for some reason have to check documents and Alexei Kischuka. He did not have a passport, and the boy was taken to the police station to verify identity. But they immediately drew up reports, both supposedly "curses" and Stanislav Lavrenov allegedly failed to obey the police.
"Nothing of the sort happened. We went to buy a present for a friend's birthday. Car stopped, started checking documents Stanislaus, then mine. Later in his car, he went to the department with the police, and I was taken separately. In May Day police station we were held for more than three hours, then was taken to the First District Court to be tried for hooliganism. But the court was not, we were taken to the detention center, and no one says, on what grounds we hold here, "- said Alexey Kischuk.
Tatsyana Sevyarynets, coordinator of the organizing committee for the creation of the Belarusian Christian Democracy, believes that the detention of boys due only to the fact that the activities of the supporters of the BCD in Vitebsk recently intensified, "on December 16 in the city were hung white-red-white flag and a banner" Freedom to political prisoners. " A few days before traveling on to Vitebsk trolley with attached white-red-white flag, and this action also had the proponents of the BCD. Today, December 19, the anniversary of the Plaza, and the police is clearly worried that someone might make a more what- a political act. "
