Pavel Svyardlou's relatives came to the detention center where he is in custody in the morning on June 23.
This is connected with detention of "Gazeta Wyborcza" journalist and activist of non-official Union of Poles in Belarus Andrzej Poczobut.
Several correspondents of our radio and other media left Euroradio's editor's office approximately at 20.30.
Pavel Svyardlou was accused of swearing. He will serve his sentence in Akrestsina. (Updated)
His flat has been searched and his PC has been confiscate. Pochobut may be imprisoned for up to 3 years.
Pavel Vinahradau and Alyaksandr Artsybashau will stand trial in Minsk Central District Court today.
The youth activist was detained on Thursday evening.
The election observation will be held in unusual conditions, as the human rights center "Vyasna" may lose its office any day.
The reason for this is the HR defender's appeal to the International Ice Hockey Federation urging not to hold the Ice Hockey World Cup-2014 in Belarus.
