According to Ales Halavan, he and other members
of Mikhalevich’s team face obstacles while handing leaflets to passers-by. In
particular, they were expelled from the territory of the shopping center Evicom by its guards who stated that the
activists had no right to hand out leaflets there and needed to apply to the
presidential administration for permission.
When the activists of the electoral team refused to obey their demands, the
guards got indignant and started to use obscene language, demanding that they stopped
canvassing.
Near the shopping center Continent the
activists had an argument with the people who called themselves policemen. In
the both cases they were threatened with the use of physical violence.
