Vitsebsk: Police Detain Youth Activists

Today in the night in Vitsebsk the police detained two students, Andrei Danileuski and Aliaksandr Dzeravianka, and took them to Vitsebsk Kastrychnitski borough police department.

On the request of the detainees a human rights activist Pavel Levinau came to the police department. According to him, the students refused to give any explanations to the police.
