Homel: police hound Kastus Zhukouski
Homel police still
persecute the civil activist. According to Zhukouski, a police car with five
policemen in uniform kept duty near his house on 2 November. “A friend came to
me at about 12 a.m.
– the car was standing near my house. At 2 p.m. the car was still there, and
even in the evening, after 6 p.m. Don’t they have any other things to do?
Probably, they want to isolate me on the eve of the People’s Assembly appointed
on 12 November,” commented Mr. Zhukouski.
The police have drawn up two more violation report on him recently. “I received
no summons to court – maybe, the police want to secretly seize me and take to
court, and then tell that I didn’t come there on summons”, commented Mr.
Zhukouski.
Bear in mind that on 21 September Kastush Zhukouski was detained by the police
with the use of physical violence. They fractured his leg. He served 15-day
arrest with the fracture. No police officers were punished for it. On 11
October the police handcuffed the opposition activist to a radiator in the
court where he came to attend the trial of Valery Sliapukhin.
