Co-leader of the organizing committee of the Belarusian Christian Democracy Pavel Sevyarynets was detained near Kurapaty on September 5, his wife wrote on Facebook. 

"Pasha has been detained near Kurapaty. He is on the way to Baraulyany District Police Department,” Volha Sevyarynets wrote.

Sevyarynets has probably been detained before the action appointed for September 9. People will gather to discuss the future of the Kurapaty watch. Kurapaty defenders are protesting against the work of the restaurant “Poedem, Poedim” next to the graves of mass executions by Stalin's secret police in the late 1930.
