Activists of LGBT movement planned to conduct this action together with "Young Assembly" activists in Minsk.
About two dozens of yougsters and girls got together near the Officers' Palace tonight. They had not even started any action - they hadn't taken out any posters or other symbols, necessary for such an event. Policemen in plain clothes surrounded them on the spot, preventing the activists from going away from the Officers' Palace.
A bus with riot policemen arrived later. The activists of the LGBT movement and the "Young Assembly" have been put in the bus and driven in an unknown direction. They are probably in one of Minsk's police departments now.
