Militia officers in Hrodna detained Mikola Bausyuk, activist of the Belarusian Christian Democracy, who was distributing information bulletins among city dwellers.
Radio Racyja learnt about Mikola Basyuk’s detention from BCD co-chairman Paval Sevyarynets.
“Mikola Bausyuk was distributing a newspaper of the Belarusian Christian Democracy at the market. Usually in such cases militia detain activists, draw a report and set them free. But Mikola Bausyuk was guarded to the Kastrychnitski district militia department allegedly for a conversation with a chief,” he told.
As the politician noted, a regional conference of the BCD party is to be held in Hrodna tomorrow, so militia officers may try to hinder in by means of preventive detentions.
