Additional check-up of Aleh Byabenin’s case

Minsk Province Office of the Public Prosecutor will conduct an additional check-up of Aleh Byabenin’s case. The deputy Attorney General of Belarus Andrei Shved has informed BelaPAN about it. He explained that the decision to stop the investigation of Aleh Byabenin’s death was taken on December 3 because the three-month term was over and there was no reason to start a case – the journalist had committed suicide. However, Minsk Region Office of the Public Prosecutor canceled the decision and sent the materials to go through an additional check-up later.

Let us remind you that the body of the founder of a popular website www.charter97.org Aleh Byabenin was found hanged in his country house on September 3.
