Silent actions participant threatened with criminal responsibility

A 19-year-old Siarhej Biaspalau has been just warned so far.

The youngster was summoned to the city police department of Minsk on July 28. He signed a document confirming that he had been warned about criminal responsibility for participation in the "silent actions".

Siarhej Biaspalau: "They called me and ordered to arrive within half an hour or they would come to me. They forced me to sign some explanation note, that I had been warned about criminal responsibility for participation in non-sanctioned demonstrations and rallies".

Before this, some people called the youngster from unknown mobile numbers and promised that he would have problems if he attended silent protest actions further on.
