The human rights activist Raman Kisliak has addressed Brest city executive committee to obtain permission for holding a picked dedicated to an anniversary of the disappearance of Viktar Hanchar and Anatol Krasouski. He intends to hold the picket on 16 September.

Kisliak says that the aim of the picket is not only to remind the public about this date, but also to demand from the authorities a real investigation of the cases of disappearance of well-known public and political activists in the country, and remind about the necessity of adoption and ratification by the Republic of Belarus of the International Convention for the Protection of All Persons from Enforced Disappearance.

Bear in mind that this year Brest authorities have banned two such actions already.
