Police: Balykin not guilty of Minsk blast
However, it is a bad idea to joke about the explosion that occurred in Minsk in 2008, think the capital police. Let us remind you that the flat of Syarhei Balykin, a lawyer, was searched at the weekend. Policemen said that the reason for the search was Balykin’s statement published in an Internet forum. He claimed he was connected with the blast that had occurred in Minsk on July 4, 2008
Balykin wanted to attract attention and he did, said the press secretary of Minsk police Alyaksandr Lastouski to ERB.
Lastouski: "This is not something to joke about; you cannot make such statements with ease. Being a lawyer, he should have predicted the consequences. The person wanted to attract attention and he did! It is self PR!”
Lastouski added that the police reacted to online information about prostitution and drugs the same way.
