Baranavichy officials accuse Mikalai Charnavus of “arbitrary rule”
On 9 January Baranavichy-based civil activist Mikalai
Charnavus was summonsed to room #106 of the Main Police Department of
Baranavichy, located in 50 Years ULKSM Street, 1. As he found from the talk
with police major Vital Dabrachynski and police lieutenant Aliaksandr
Samtsevich, Baranavichy officials accused him of arbitrary rule.
The Baranavichy City Executive Committee filed with the procuracy a letter in
which he is accused of violating the law during the establishment of the civil
association of Ukrainian Diaspora “Kobzar”. He is also accused of insult of the
local authorities for calling a fraud the repeated election of the Council of
the central market, held by its administration in December 2011.
Mikalai Charnavus is sure that the real reason for the pressurization is his
application for holding a rally with participation of about 600 entrepreneurs
on 19 January, in order to inform the public about the fraud during the
election of the market council and the swindle of the “Rollet-montage” firm
during the construction of market places.
Charnavus's visit to the police department ended with writing an explanatory
note for the policemen.
