Movement “For Freedom” is not registered again

The Ministry of Justice has refused to register a human rights defending civil association “Movement “For Freedom” headed by Alyaksandr Milinkevich again. The reason for the refusal was said discordance of the mentioned goals and activities with the so-called real ones.
 
It turned out that an official had analyzed public speeches and statements of Alyaksandr Milinkevich and other activists before taking the decision about the registration of the movement.  Taking “the analysis” into account, he decided that it was impossible to register the movement “For Freedom” because its activities were “political”.

According to Alyaksandr Milinkevich’s press service, the Ministry of Justice is simply trying to punish the organization that has not been registered yet and has not started existing as a human rights defending civil association “Movement “For Freedom” for discordance of its activities with its statute.
