Eva Nyaklyaeva in European Parliament: You have the keys of my father's prison

The ex-presidential candidate Uladzimir Nyaklyaeu's daughter Eva Nyaklyaeva has asked the EU to press the Belarusian authorities in a proper way in order to release the prisoners of conscience, at the hearings in the European Parliament.  Eva Nyaklyaeva: "The authorities are committing terror. Searches, arrests, interrogations in the KGB, sometimes accompanied with physical violence, happen every day. The situation gets worse each day. We are worried about the health of the prisoners... The European Union should take concrete strict steps against the Belarusian authorities. You have the keys of my father's prison. His release, as well as the release of other prisoners, depends on you".

Eva Nyaklyaeva reminded that Uladzimir Nyaklyaeu's health had seriously decreased in the end of December in the KGB pre-trial detention center. There has been no information about his health, as well as about the health of other prisoners, since then.
