A famous Vitsebsk human rights activist Pavel Levinau decided to start eating after 14 days of being on hunger strike.
Pavel Levinau, member of Belarusian Helsinki Committee, says that he had to do so due to medical reasons. He was warned of possible aftermath of the strike.
Pavel Levinau was detained on March 27 during a search in the private apartment of Vitsebsk journalist Vadzim Barshcheuski. He was charged with resisting arrest and using foul language.
