Horki detained to stand trial in Drybin

The hearing started in Horki at first, informs the BCD press service. It was closed – neither human rights activists nor journalists were able to enter the building. Only Tatstsyana Shaputska’s mother was let in.
Let us remind you that democratic activists arrived in Horki on August 2. They demanded to allow political prisoner Zmitser Dashkevich to meet his lawyer.
