Political prisoner Zmitser Paliyenka has been sent to Babruisk colony #2, the human rights website Viasna reports. The young man will have to spend 18 months there because the respite has been cancelled.

 

Paliyenka was convicted for taking part in the bicycle action Critical Mass in 2016. He was returned guilty of attacking a policeman and distributing pornography on the Internet.

 

The respite has been cancelled after two administrative arrests on end – the young man took part in protest actions. 

Rights defenders have announced Paliyenka a political prisoner. They are urging to support him. Letters can be sent to this address:
