Dzmitry Uss tries to get his initiative group registered

On 1 May former presidential candidate Dzmitry Uss held an outdoor assembly with the aim to establish an initiative group for preparation of the draft law for amending the Electoral Code of Belarus. More than 100 people from different parts of Belarus became members of the group.

The documents for the registration of the initiative group will be passed to the Central Election Commission by 20 May. Though the event wasn't publicized in order to escape the attention of secret services, three Brest and four Baranavichy activists were preventively detained on the day of the assembly.
