Zmitser Dashkevich keeps hunger strike for 7th day in Mazyr colony
The prisoner says he will stop the hunger strike if the prison administration stops persecuting him, adopts adequate attitude and apoligizes for insults.
The Young Front press-center informs that Dashkevich is persecuted in the colony due to religious reasons, as a Protestant. He was deprived of long-term meetings after he had refused to clean up in the brigade. He was also reprimanded for that. Somebody else's blade found on the table was used as a ground to put the question on Dashkevich's mental health.
According to Dashkevich's words quoted by the press-center, the colony's administration keeps insulting him and uses every excuse to persecute him. "Besides, the Chief of the colony tried to twist the situation and claimed that Zmitser was swearing at him and insulted him...", - says activist Nasta Palazhanka, who visited the colony where Zmitser Dashkevich was imprisoned, together with the lawyer.
