Activist Ivan Amelchanka at Chernobyl Way march
Youth activist Ivan Amelchanka was detained yesterday at Minsk Leninski District Police Department and later taken to a detention center in Akrestsin Street.
He is expected to stand administrative trial tomorrow morning.
The activist appeared at the police station after the police had urged him to do so, following an incident during the 26 April Chernobyl Way demonstration, when Ivan Amelchanka raised a poster “Musorok” (a play on the words “cop” and “garbage”) near a plainclothes policemen filming the rally.
