Mahiliou democrats to appeal refusal to elect oppositionist for local electoral committee

‘There will be no representatives of the city’s pro-democratic organizations. All the 4 candidates nominated by local democrats were turned down,’ says human rights activist Barys Bukhel.

The composition of Mahiliou city electoral committee was pre-settled, with no seats for oppositionists, says the activist.

Members of the BPF Adradzhenne’s local office say they are going to appeal the decision.
