Nasta Palazhanka is banned to go abroad
On 2 November Nasta Palazhanka, Deputy Chairwoman
of the “Young Front”, was summonsed to the police without explanation of the reasons.
“I was again warned that I had no right to leave Belarus,” said Nasta. “I am a
student of the European
Humanities University
and must go abroad for my exam sessions. When my verdict was announced, the
judge specified that I had the right to go abroad. However, today the head of
the Pershamaiski District Police Department of Minsk has shown me a ruling,
according to which the people who are sentenced to conditional imprisonment and
corrective labor have no right to leave Belarus. This is far from the first
case when a ruling is given a greater priority than a law. We will discriminate
in this situation. I was told not to get surprised if I would be set off a
train on the border. Before this, they again took my fingerprints – my friends and I joke
that one can get to the Guinness book of records with such a number of
dactylographies,” commented Nasta Palazhanka.
