Hrodna: search at Mikola Lemianouski's apartment

On 14 February the police searched the apartment of a member of the Belarusian Popular Front Mikola Lemianouski. The search was connected to the recent detention of his daughter, Veranika, who had been allegedly posting leaflets together with another young activist, Nadzeya Krapivina.

The search took place in the morning. At first the police wanted to enter the apartment without a warrant, but the owner didn't let them in. They returned with a warrant issued by prosecutor Eduard Burak. The search lasted for 90 minutes. As a result the policemen confiscated two system units and some old newspapers. They were reluctant to give to Lemianouski a copy of the protocol of the search and did it only after his insistent demands.
