Prison guards refuse to accept medicines for Zmitser Bandarenka

The state of health of Zmitser Bandarenka, a European Belarus coordinator, who has spent more than 3 months in the KGB jail already, is disturbing.

Guards of the pre-trial prison of the KGB refused to accept medicines which his wife, Volha Bandarenka, tried to pass to him on his request. They also refused to accept sausages and cucumbers, saying that Zmitser was on a diet.

Bear in mind that in the KGB pre-trial prison the spinal column and joints’ diseases of a political prisoner Zmitser Bandarenka aggravated, he can hardly move. He cannot receive competent medical help in the prison. However his request to be hospitalized was declined. Zmitser’s stomach ulcer opened because of pain-killers and anti-inflammatory drugs.
