The opposition activist from Vitsebsk campaigned for boycott of the election, reports Radio Liberty. He came out with a poster "No real election with legitimate outcome is possible without legitimate Constitution".
He
stood in the city center for about an hour, when riot police arrived
and ordered to take the poster away. Hamaida refused, the policemen
accused him of disobeyance and drove him to the police department.
Let
us remind you, Hamaida was detained one more time this week, together
with the CCP BPF member Jan Dziarzhautsau. The opposition activists
urged the citizens to boycott the election. Hamaida was sentenced to 5
days of detention and then released pre-term, and Dziarzhautsau was
fined for 350 thousand roubles.
