Journalist Ihar Bantsar detained in Hrodna
Policemen have arrived at his flat this morning.
Ihar Bantsar’s wife Anzhalika Arehva has informed Euroradio about his detention. According to her, policemen have not informed about the reason for the arrest. Ihar’s whereabouts are unknown now.
Anzhalika Arehva thinks that Ihar’s detention may be connected with Andrzej Pochobut’s trial that will begin in Hrodna today. Activists of the Union of Poles are going to approach the building to support Pochobut. It seems that policemen are trying to summon some activists to the police department to prevent the peaceful action today.
