On 15 February, Brest activist Ms. Katsiaryna Pashko received a phone call from local economic crimes department. An unknown official invited the activist for a “conversation”. After she refused to appear in the department without an official summons, the official threatened to escort the girl in hand-cuffs. As a result, Ms. Katsiaryna had to promise to appear on 16 February.
Brest human rights defender Uladzimir Vialichkin says the unexpected “invitation” was caused by the activist’s possible involvement in today’s solidarity rallies.
