Pro-government candidate abuses election law

The pro-government candidate running for the Mahiliou Regional Council Viktar Lazarenka uses the Belposhta national post network while maintaining campaigning for voters, says local Belarusian Christian Democracy activist Kanstantsin Tyrtychny. The activist claims that he received the latest issue of the Sovetskaya Belorussia newspaper with the loyal candidate’s leaflet inside.

‘The leaflet was between the newspaper’s pages and could not appear there by chance,’ says Mr. Tyrtychny.
