Zhlobin: prosecutor's office issues a protest against justification of member of “Fair World”
The
Zhlobin District Prosecutor's Office filed a protest to the Homel
Regional Court against the decision of the Zhlobin District Court to
acquit the member of the Belarusian Leftist Party “Fair World”
Yauhen Basareuski of all charges..
“On Friday I received a
copy of the protest to the court”, - says Mr. Basareuski.
“Therefore, I shouldn't relax too much, as the court proceedings
can resume again pretty soon.”
The activist says it is
likely that the protest of the prosecutor's office could be triggered
by the possibility of a lawsuit for compensation of the means Mr.
Basareuski spent during the three years of litigation.
Bear
in mind that on 19 July the Zhlobin District Court acquitted the
member of the party "Fair World" as well as his former
colleague, Valiantsina Kastsiukevich, both of whom were charged under
Article 424 of the Criminal Code ("abuse of power or official
powers"). The proceedings on the case lasted since 2010, when
the activist tried to get nominated as a candidate for deputy at the
election to the local councils.
