All rights demonstrators released without charges

Police seized the declarations, campaign jackets and flags.

Police also released several activists of a new youth opposition group called Maladaya Belarus (Young Belarus) who staged a small demonstration next to the KGB's central office in downtown Minsk. They were apprehended while walking near the building wearing prison clothes with signs saying, "I’m an independent journalist," and "I’m a member of an unregistered organization."

In Brest, two young activists spent a few hours at a police station after hanging out Belarus’ historically national white-red-white flag near the main building of Brest State University on December 10.
