As a result of personal examination the leader of the Belarusian trade union of workers of radio-electronic trade (RET) Aliaksandr Bukhvostau missed his bus to one of Lithuania’s sanatoriums where he intended to get his health improved. He was detained on the border and underwent complete personal search – the customs officers even told him to undress. Having found nothing, the officers had to let him go without even giving excuses. However, by that time the bus was already gone.
