Moladzevy biuleten UFF.BY.org is a non-periodical low-circulation student edition about culture, art and student life in Belarus. The confiscated number was dedicated to Basovishcha-2007 rock festival in Poland. The police detained the youngsters for more than three hours without giving any charges, which is a violation of the Belarusian legislation. The formal reason for the confiscation of the bulletin was the absence of the output data. A confiscation report was composed.
According to a human rights activist Barys Bukhel, the local KGB office got interested in this case. Probably, soon the youngsters will have a talk with the KGB workers.
