Public activist claims he is harassed by authorities

Ivan Kruk, activist of the For Freedom movement, has lodged claims with Hrodna Regional Prosecutor’s Office, General Prosecutor’s Office and Hrodna Regional KGB Department against the unlawful actions by the police and the KGB agents. The activist claims he and his colleague Mikalai Ulasevich have been harassed for their civil activities against the construction of a nuclear power plant in the town of Astravets, including illegal searches and an unlawful detention on 4 March. The activist is also indignant at the unwillingness of the local prosecutor’s office and the police to investigate the facts of libel against Ivan Kruk and Mikalai Ulasevich.
